Rovers have signed Southampton midfielder Harrison Reed on a season-long loan.
The 23-year-old becomes Rovers’ sixth summer signing, following Jacob Davenport, Joe Rothwell, Kasey Palmer, Adam Armstrong and Jack Rodwell through the Ewood arrivals door.
Reed played 43 times for Norwich City on loan last season, 36 as a starter in the Championship, featuring in both central midfield and right-back.
He has made 30 appearances in all for parent club Southampton, 17 in the Premier League, following his first-team debut in August 2013.
Reed featured regularly during pre-season for the Saints and is under contract until 2021.
