Blackburn Rovers recover injured players but face uncertainty regarding transfer target

Blackburn Rovers manager Tony Mowbray confirmed forward Andri Gudjohnsen has returned to training and may be available for the upcoming match against Millwall. The Iceland international missed the previous fixture against Sheffield United due to injury. While Gudjohnsen could return to the squad, Yuki Ohashi and Mathias Jorgensen remain sidelined for the long term. Scott Wharton continues his recovery but is not yet ready for first-team action. Meanwhile, the club's effort to sign free agent midfielder Ryōtarō Itō appears unlikely to proceed as planned. Despite the player and his representatives traveling to the facility with the expectation of a deal, Mowbray indicated the transfer remains unresolved and is currently stalled.
