McCarthy eyeing Ewood Park exit

The South African striker has grown increasingly disillusioned with life at Ewood Park of late and feels the time is right to take on a fresh challenge.The final straw came during Monday's 2-2 draw with Sunderland, when he was booed from the field on being substituted.McCarthy has since been called in for early morning fitness training by Rovers boss Sam Allardyce and admits he is no longer prepared to put up with the unfair treatment."Enough's enough, I feel I've been stepped on too much and it's best I go," McCarthy said in the Daily Mail."I feel I'm being singled out unfairly. I wasn't any worse than the other lads, yet I'm the only one on duty from that game (against Sunderland) being asked to come in at 7am. "Yes, I admit I've had issues with hitting the weight targets the manager has set and that's my fault, but I put 100 per cent in on the pitch and always try my hardest. It seems I'm being punished more than others." McCarthy, who joined Blackburn from Porto in 2006, is keen to stay in the Premier League and hopes a New Year switch elsewhere will help to keep his World Cup dreams alive.The 32-year-old frontman added: "I'd like to stay in the England. This is a great league."I'm just unhappy with my situation and need to feel wanted again. I'm not getting any younger but I know I can still make an impact."This is a very big year for me. To come from South Africa and have the chance to play for my country in the World Cup is massive. "I can't risk that by playing the odd game here and there for Blackburn. I need to play and I hope they will allow me to fulfil that dream."They got me for next to nothing and they've had a good return with more than 50 goals in about 130 games."Hopefully they won't ask an unreasonable fee and let me go when the window opens."
