Blackburn favourites for Tyler Morton loan transfer from Liverpool after Reds snubbed Ben Davies bid and sold to Rangers
BLACKBURN are strong favourites to sign Tyler Morton from Liverpool on loan.
Rovers hope to clinch a deal in the next week but may yet have to wait until closer to the end of the window.
Midfielder Morton, 19, travelled with the first-team squad to Austria but he could be released for a medical at Ewood Park on his return.
Karl Robinson boss Oxford has also tried for Morton and could offer him a better chance of game time.
But Blackburn have a good relationship with Liverpool from Harvey Elliott’s spell on loan.
Despite that, Liverpool snubbed their offer to let defender Ben Davies join on loan.
