Larsson: Attracting interest
Sebastian Larsson's agent says there has been no contact from Blackburn Rovers regarding the Birmingham City midfielder.
Reports have linked new Rovers boss Paul Ince with a £4.5million bid for Swedish midfielder Larsson, while Newcastle United are also reportedly interest.
Larsson has been tipped for a summer departure from St Andrews following Birmingham's relegation from the Premier League.
Blues boss Alex McLeish is hoping the former Arsenal youngster will stay and is willing to offer Larsson a new long-term contract.
The player's agent Per Jonsson, though, has hinted the 23-year-old would be prepared to leave Birmingham, if the right bid comes in.
"They are saying that Sebastian is one of their most important players," Jonsson told Sportbladet.
"Everyone is for sale for the right price and that is what Sebastian is hoping for.
"I haven't heard anything from Blackburn, but there are offers."
