30/05/2009

TAL BEN-HAIM looks likely to be reunited with his former boss Sam Allardyce at Blackburn Rovers.

Manchester City's Israeli defender has been on loan at Sunderland and is now surplus to requirements at Eastlands.

Former Chelsea man Ben-Haim, 27, played under Allardyce at Bolton, making 88 league appearances for Wanderers after joining from Maccabi Tel Aviv in 2004.

He joined City last summer after a year at Stamford Bridge.

Go or him Sam...e's a good player and a snip for around £8mill. You know it makes sense.

Forget it Sam! You must be the only person in the Premier who rates this bloke?
There are plenty more talented players available on frees to bolster the squad.
