HENNING Berg has accepted the role of Blackburn Rovers manager and will be unveiled tomorrow morning.

Rovers have now confirmed the 43-year-old's appointment and Berg will be unveiled at a press conference tomorrow morning.

The former Norwegian international made almost 300 appearances for Rovers in two spells at the club.

He won the Premier League with Rovers in 1995 before helping them win promotion to the top flight and lifting the Worthington Cup in his second spell.

Rovers' managerial search has gone on a month since the departure of Steve Kean, with Berg only interviewed on Monday night.
