Blackburn boss Steve Kean is to remain at Ewood Park and be given funds to strengthen the squad, Rovers owners Venky’s have confirmed.
Venky’s are keen to underline their full commitment to their current manager and are adamant that they have no plans to implement changes in the dugout any time soon.
Co-owner Venkatesh Rao told Sky Sports News: “We have been very happy with him. We were in relegation trouble, but we came out of it. That doesn’t help the rumours, but I want to reassure the fans that there is nothing like that happening. He is there for good.
“We are very positive about him. I don’t know why these rumours come.”
Rao has also refuted those rumours that suggested the club was struggling financially, adding: “Money is not a problem, the problem is miscommunication and the rumours have led to this situation, for which I am very sorry.
“We want to run it as a company, very systematically. On spending, we are very much meticulous and we want to do it positively.”
Kean is currently in India holding discussions with the Rao family and he claims he has been given assurances that money will be made available.
He said: “I had a meeting with some of the family last night and I’ve got another meeting today. We will be discussing people coming into the club.
“I have got a great relationship with the owners and we are trying to get more people coming to the club and prevent anybody from leaving – it’s as simple as that.”
