Rovers reported to be team bidding for Serbian

Partizan Belgrade have confirmed that they are ready to sell Radosav Petrovic, as Serbian sources claim Blackburn Rovers are interested. Petrovic has already seen a move to Dutch club Vitesse Arnhem fall through as he was poised to pen a five-year deal. Now Partizan have revealed that Petrovic is close to a move and reports in Serbia suggest the club in question is Blackburn. The 22-year-old Serbia international midfielder has been with Partizan for three-years and was one of the top-scorers in the Super Liga last season as he helped his club to the title. Now Partizan have confirmed that Petrovic does look like he will be moving. "We have a serious bid for Petrovic and the chances are that there will be a transfer," said the club's sporting director Mladen Krstajic. Vitesse have, for their part, confirmed that they are still interested in signing Petrovic, along with fellow countryman Slobodan Rajkovic from Chelsea.
