Tony Mowbray is still looking to add to his side during the loan window after the latest capture of Adam Armstrong.
The Newcastle striker signed a permanent deal on deadline day, and the Championship new-boys are still hoping to add to their squad as they look to consolidate their position in the second tier.
Kasey Palmer joined from Chelsea on loan with Jacob Davenport another arrival to the former Premier League champions this summer.
The majority of Rovers’ side was of Championship standard in League One last year, so additions to the squad will add strength and depth as Mowbray’s men look to have a successful return the the second tier.
Blackburn have managed two draws in their opening two league fixtures this season, a 2-2 draw with Ipswich Town on the opening day and a goalless encounter with Millwall last Saturday.
Here are three players Blackburn Rovers’ boss Mowbray should be targeting this week to get into Ewood Park on loan.
Blackburn are in need of a striker to compliment Danny Graham in attack who is was one of their primary source of goals last term, despite the recent addition of Adam Armstrong.
Wickham needs game time after a long injury lay-off and Rovers will be looking to add to their side and strengthen before the end of the month.
A loan deal for the Crystal Palace striker is one that Tony Mowbray should be looking at.
The former Huddersfield Town and Norwich City winger seem to be out of favour at his current side Cardiff City.
With Bradley Dack their only real outlet regarding creativity and registering assists, Blackburn could do with another goal architect to help feed Danny Graham and new signing Adam Armstrong.
Pilkington is from the Lancashire neck of the woods so a move might be appealing. It is a deal worth looking at for Mowbray before the August 31 deadline.
With 13 players arriving at the City Ground, Ben Brereton has fallen way down the pecking order at Nottingham Forest.
You can never have too many goalscorers at a club, and for the newly-promoted side, they will need a higher class of striker if they are to score the goals they need to survive.
Brereton would be in with a chance of regularly featuring for Rovers this season should he sign on loan.
