BLACKBURN Rovers have today secured a work permit for Serbian international Radosav Petrovic.

The 22-year-old has signed from Partizan on a four-year deal and becomes the club's second signing of the summer following the arrival of striker David Goodwillie.

Boss Kean travelled to London this morning to speak for the energetic midfielder’s case at a work permit hearing.

6'4" Petrovic is currently in Moscow for Serbia's friendly against Russia tomorrow night.

Rovers hope he will be eligible for Saturday's Premier League opener against Wolves at Ewood Park.
