Kean: 'Holiett should join top-four club'

Blackburn Rovers boss Steve Kean has urged forward Junior Holiett to move to a "top-four club" if he decides to leave the club at the end of the season.

The 21-year-old, who has been slapped with a reported £18m price tag, is believed to be intent on leaving Ewood Park when his contract expires next summer.

"I've told him that if he ever leaves the club, he should be going to a top-three or top-four club," Sky Sports News quotes Kean as saying.

"I don't know if he's at the stage yet that if he went to a club like that he'd play consistently. But we can give him games where he's going to feature and be a match-winner for us."

The Premier League side signed Holiett when he was 13 years old.
