Material gains for the Little Buddha as Blackburn table offer for De la Pena

Blackburn are interested in taking former Spanish international Ivan de la Pena on loan from Espanyol. The 33-year-old midfielder, nicknamed the Little Buddha, is seeking to quit La Liga, claiming he is underpaid. And Rovers boss Sam Allardyce has tabled an offer with view to a permanent deal. Meanwhile, Rovers are poised to reward Morten Gamst Pedersen with a new improved deal. The Norwegian winger, 27, was a key figure as Rovers escaped relegation under Sam Allardyce last season.
