The Daily Mail are reporting that former Portugal striker Nuno Gomes is on his way to Blackburn, after being released by Portugese club Sporting Braga this summer. The Ewood Park club want to pair 36-year-old Gomes, who scored 29 goals for the Portugese national side in 79 appearances and 125 goals for Benfica in two spells and 293 appearances, with new £3m signing Leon Best who joined yesterday from Newcastle United. The striker reportedly agreed personal terms on a two year deal at the weekend, and is currently at the club undergoing a medical ahead of finalising the move, despite lucrative interest from both America and the middle east. Blackburn will be looking to bounce back to the Premier League at the first attempt, but on the strength of their performances last season, there is still a lot of rebuilding to be done. The signature of Leon Best, who will find his level in the Championship after largely warming the bench at St James Park stands out as a good bit of business, and this acquisition of a player with masses of top-level experience will offer something more to the attack that also includes Scottish striker David Goodwillie. The squad is certain to have a lot of experience, with Gomes joining former Fulham midfielder Danny Murphy through the door, and if Blackburn can keep hold of some of their star players, they might have a strong case for immediate promotion. The deal is expected to go through later this afternoon, with the formalities all but complete, and manager Steve Kean will reportedly turn his attention to former Liverpool and Leeds winger Harry Kewell. What do you think Rovers fans? Will Nuno Gomes make a good signing?
