Callum Brittain pushed for a move this summer to Blackburn Rovers after the Ewood Park club intensified their interest in the Barnsley defender and is looking forward to the challenge the Championship poses this season.
The defender arrived earlier this week on a permanent contract and marks Jon Dahl Tomasson's first capture as head coach, with him penning a deal until 2026.
The right-back fills a natural hole in the Rovers squad after the exit of Ryan Nyambe, who has joined Wigan Athletic. The 24-year-old made his debut for Blackburn yesterday in the 1-0 pre-season victory on the road against League One side Lincoln City.
Brittain impressed off the bench as he almost instantly grabbed an assist for Bradley Dack to head home what proved to be the winner.
