Rovers boss Tony Mowbray wants a new No 1 and is interested in the former England star.

Joe Hart is wanted by Blackburn after losing his place at Burnley this season

Hart, 32, has endured another miserable campaign having moved to Turf Moor in the summer following a dismal loan season at West Ham.

The former Manchester City star started the season as first choice with the Clarets but was axed as the side struggled near the foot of the table in favour of Tom Heaton.

Since then he has been unable to regain his place in Sean Dyche's side, and is now looking to get out in the summer - but does not want to take a drop in wages.

So to get a deal done, Rovers would have to opt for a loan and hope Burnley give them favourable terms which would see them contributing some of his salary.

The Clarets would prefer him to go on a permanent basis — meaning Blackburn will face a long wait to get their man.

Mowbray is also considering Scott Carson, who may leave Derby after losing his place in the side.
