It was a busy summer for Blackburn Rovers with 10 new signings and six players sold.
Away from Ewood Park, it was also a frantic transfer window for those with blue and white connections.
No fewer than 22 players with a Rovers history moved clubs, ranging from Premier League switches, European transfers to Non-League arrivals.
Here's a full list with a bit of background on each one.
Thomas Kaminski
The former Blackburn Rovers goalkeeper swapped Luton Town for Charlton Athletic after two seasons at Kenilworth Road. Sadly, Rovers didn't get anything despite a sell-on clause as that was based on profit.
Derek Williams
Blackburn Rovers' League One promotion winners signed for Reading after spending the last four years playing in Major League Soccer. He left Rovers in 2021 by mutual consent and is now back in England with the Royals.
Ash Phillips
Ash Phillips remains in the Championship after signing on loan for Stoke City again. He has not really had much of an opportunity since leaving Rovers for Tottenham Hotspur in the summer of 2023.
Dion Sanderson
Sanderson spent January onwards at Ewood Park and has now reunited with John Eustace again at Derby County.
Amari'i Bell
Like Kaminski, Bell has swapped Luton for Charlton, though he was a free agent after his contract ended. Bell had been with the Hatters for four years after leaving Rovers in 2021.
Owen Beck
Like Sanderson, Beck is now a Derby player after signing a new contract at Liverpool beforehand.
Lenni Cirino
Cirino left Rovers in the summer of 2024, spending last term with Clitheroe. He's now a Gillingham player alongside Bradley Dack under the guidance of Gareth Ainsworth.
James Brown
Right-back Brown left Rovers in 2023 and joined Ross County. After two years there, he joined Kilmarnock.
Tayo Edun
After a six-month spell at Peterborough, Edun has signed for Stockport County. Sadly, a bad injury has ruled him out of the start of their season.
Richie Smallwood
Another crucial member of the promotion-winning side, Smallwood was released by Bradford City despite scooping all their end-of-season awards and being captain. He's joined Tranmere Rovers in League Two.
Joe Rothwell
After 18 months of loans, Rothwell has left Bournemouth permanently to sign for Rangers. He left Rovers in 2022 and after initially doing well with the Cherries, had loans at Southampton and Leeds United.
Jason Lowe
After two years at Port Vale, Lowe is now at Tranmere alongside Smallwood. He made more than 150 appearances for Blackburn, leaving in 2017.
Tyler Morton
The Liverpool midfielder was on loan in 2022/23 and then went to Hull City the following year. After 12 months doing little at Anfield, he made a permanent switch to French side Lyon.
Harvey Elliott
Another Liverpool loanee, Elliott has flown the Merseyside nest too. He joined Aston Villa on transfer deadline day in a loan deal with an obligation to buy.
Andrew Moran
Moran was at Ewood Park in 2023/24 in Jon Dahl Tomasson's second and final season. He spent last year at Stoke before moving to MLS side LA FC on loan this summer.
Sorba Thomas
After a year in France with Nantes, Thomas finally left Huddersfield on a permanent deal, signing for Stoke, where he's made a great start. Rovers had him for six months in January 2023.
Amario Cozier-Dubbery
After struggling to show consistency at Championship level, Cozier-Duberry is now tearing it up a level below. He's been a bright spark for Bolton Wanderers in their start to the season.
Ben Brereton Diaz
It's another Championship loan for 'Bezza', two years on from his Ewood Park exit. Since he's joined Villarreal, had two loan spells at Sheffield United and there was a permanent switch to Southampton inbetween. He's signed for Derby on loan this summer.
Joe Nuttall
A blast from the past, Nuttall is another who has moved. He's joined Morecambe in the National League after three years with Oldham Athletic.
Harry Chapman
Once seen as a future prospect at Rovers, Chapman remains in the National League. He helped Barnet win promotion last year but left and is now at Gateshead.
Semir Telalovic
It was a short and not so sweet stint in England for Telalovic. He only lasted one season at Rovers but his form for Ulm earned him a move to Nurnberg this summer.
Cauley Woodrow
Not in the plans at Luton, Woodrow has joined League One rivals Wycombe Wanderers on loan. He scored on his debut at the weekend against Mansfield Town.
