HITMAN Liam Cullen is a likely target for Blackburn.
Manager Jon Dahl Tomasson wants more options up top and is keen to land Swansea’s versatile forward, 24, whose contract is up after this season.
Cullen starred for Swansea last season as he bagged eight goals and one assist in 29 Championship outings.
This season, he has endured a slower start to life in the division, having only scored one goal in his first eight league appearances.
Cullen is currently managing a knock that he picked up during the midweek draw with Queens Park Rangers.
Manager Michael Duff is hoping that he will be back for selection soon.
