Huddersfield striker looks set for move

Sky Sports understands that Blackburn Rovers are closing in on the signing of Huddersfield Town star Jordan Rhodes. Rovers have been chasing the Scottish striker all summer but looked to have given up earlier this month. Sky Sports revealed on Wednesday that Rovers had rekindled their interest and now a deal is edging towards being done. It is already believed that the player has agreed terms with the Ewood Park outfit, who are now finalising the fee with Huddersfield. The Terriers stated at the weekend they would only sell for around £8million and it is understood Blackburn are set to pay that amount to land the 22-year-old.
