Michel Salgado to move to China?

Blackburn Rovers defender Michel Salgado has alerted the attention of a host of Chinese clubs after being told he can leave Ewood Park.

The Spaniard, 36, has appeared just eight times for the club this season after appearing in all but two of their league games in the previous campaign.

The former Real Madrid defender was expected to retire in England but could be tempted by one last payday, according to The Sun.

Blackburn are in FA Cup action against Newcastle on Saturday afternoon.
