Blackburn Rovers looking into temporary transfer agreement with Wolves

Blackburn Rovers have made an enquiry to Wolves about the potential signing of midfielder Ryan Giles, The Sun’s Alan Nixon has reported.

Having come through the academy at Wolves, Giles has yet to make a Premier League appearance for the club, instead spending much of his senior career on loan elsewhere.

The 22-year-old’s most recent spell saw him spend the first half of this season on loan at Cardiff, where he provided nine assists in 21 Championship games, before being recalled by Wolves.
