BLACKBURN have set their sights on Jacob Fowler — son of Liverpool legend Robbie.
Fowler Jr, 18, is with Oxford United but has joined up with Rovers’ highly-rated youth side.
The Anfield cult hero’s offspring plays as an attacking midfielder and has previously been on trial at Rangers.
The youngster has made four appearances for the Blackburn youth squad in the U18s Premier League netting one goal in the process.
And Fowler Jr even faced off against his dad's former employers earlier this month with a 45 minute cameo as Rovers lost 5-1 to Liverpool's U18 setup.

Jacob joined Oxford back in 2022 after signing as a scholar on a two-year deal.
His dad Robbie was best known for his goal-scoring prowess and is the eighth top scorer in Premier League history.
The 48-year-old netted 163 times in England's top flight with the vast majority coming during his time with Liverpool.
Although Robbie also spent some time on the books at Blackburn Rovers like his son.
The former England International signed for the Ewood Park outfit back in 2008 on an unusual three-month contract.
