Junior Hoilett could be sold says Blackburn boss Kean

Junior Hoilett Hoilett has scored three goals in 19 appearances this season
Blackburn Rovers manager Steve Kean says the club will have to consider any offers that come in for Canadian forward Junior Hoilett.
The 21-year-old is out of contract at the end of the season and is no closer to agreeing new terms.
Kean told BBC Radio Lancashire: "If there's a bid that comes in, then we'd have to consider that.
"No bids have come in but we haven't spoken to him about extending his contract," the Scot added.
Rovers have been in talks with Hoilett's representatives for more than six months but have been unable to reach a conclusion. Kean says that the club remain desperate for Hoilett to remain at Ewood Park, where has been since the age of 13.
He said: "We've continued to keep dialogue with Junior. What we have to do is continue to be open and honest with Junior and say 'we want you to stay'.
"We've always said from day one that we'd like to get it tied up. I think he's probably taken the opportunity to look elsewhere.
"I don't really know where he is on it but we're anxious to continue open conversation with him and if he decides to sign, great."

Stoke end battling win at Watford

An own goal by goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes helped earn Stoke City a deserved win as 10-man Watford suffered a first home defeat since August. Gomes could do little as Charlie Adam's header from Xherdan Shaqiri's corner hit the base of the post before ricocheting off the Brazilian and rolling into the net. If there was a touch of fortune about the goal, Stoke were full value for their victory against sluggish opponents who missed out on the chance to climb to sixth in the Premier League table. Watford had defender Miguel Britos sent off in the closing stages for a second yellow card after Gomes had saved well from Bruno Martins Indi, while Stoke's club record £18.3m signing Giannelli Imbula also went close from 25 yards.

Aguero score twice in Man City win

Sergio Aguero scored twice as Manchester City came back from a goal down to earn a hard-fought win at Burnley and claim back-to-back Premier League victories for the first time since September. The home side might have had a penalty before surprisingly taking lead when City defender Nicolas Otamendi could only head a clearance straight to Clarets midfielder Dean Marney, who volleyed in from 25 yards. City struggled for fluency but Aguero equalised when he poked in a shot at the far post after a corner was deflected into his path. The visitors controlled the game after the break and took the lead when a Fernandinho cross hit Aguero and went in after some sloppy Burnley defending. Clarets defender Michael Keane had a late header blocked by Aleksandar Kolarov and an overhead kick from Ashley Barnes was saved by City keeper Claudio Bravo but Burnley failed to prevent a third home loss in the top flight this season.

Everton defender Phil Jagielka out for six weeks

Jagielka suffered a cruciate ligament injury to his left knee in 2009 Everton boss David Moyes wants to sign a central defender in the January transfer window after losing Phil Jagielka for up to six weeks. Jagielka, 29, injured medial ligaments in his knee during Wednesday's 2-1 defeat by Bolton at Goodison Park. "To lose him [Jagielka] is a massive blow because he is an integral part of the defence and it leaves us short at centre-half," said Moyes. "We are looking but it will more than likely be in the loan market." England international Jagielka, who has made 19 Premier League starts this season, injured his left knee in 2009 and spent nearly a year on the sidelines.
