Allardyce to check on Colombian ace
Edixon Perea is flying into England and will link up with Blackburn Rovers,
skysports.com understands.
The Colombian international forward is a free agent after leaving Brazilian club Gremio and a host of sides in Britain had been looking to do a deal.
Now the former Bordeaux man is set to join up with Sam Allardyce's men and will spend the early part of the week training with Rovers in order to prove his fitness.
Subject to him impressing Allardyce, Perea is expected to land a permanent deal with Blackburn - despite interest from rival Premier League and SPL clubs.
South American sources have confirmed that Perea is flying into England on Sunday and he should start training with Blackburn on Monday.
Skysports.com revealed earlier this summer that Perea was looking to seal a move to Britain.
