BLACKBURN have made a move for AC Milan playmaker by offering him a deal worth about �20m over three years. Venky's, the company that bought Rovers in 2010, says its Brazil office is in talks with the 30-year-old's manager. "He is keen to play in the EPL [English Premier League] and I think that goes in our favour," Venky's chair Anuradha Desai told BBC Radio Lancashire. Desai also revealed that Rovers had made attempts to sign David Beckham, 35, on loan from Los Angeles Galaxy. She added the club were "open whenever he is ready to come." Beckham has been the subject of much transfer speculation, with several Premier League clubs waiting to hear whether LA Galaxy will release the former England captain on a loan deal during the Major League Soccer off-season. The MLS season resumes on 15 March, meaning the ex-Manchester United midfielder would be available to play up to 11 games on a short-term deal. Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has already suggested that Beckham is keen to move to White Hart Lane, while Newcastle are another interested party. is in his native Brazil after leaving AC Milan's winter training camp in Dubai, a move that looks set to end his troubled stay at the San Siro. He moved to Milan from Barcelona in 2008 but lost his place in the starting XI after the club signed forwards Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Robinho last summer. Brazilian clubs Flamengo, Palmeiras and Gremio are all keen on but Blackburn have tabled a bid to AC Milan and a tempting offer in terms of wages for the player. "To be precise [it is] 7.6m euros (�6.5m) for the first year and about 8.5m euros (�7.2m) for the second and third years," confirmed Desai. Rovers manager Steve Kean said the bid was a statement of intent from the club's Indian owners. "I know there has been contact made by the owners to representatives of but I don't know how far down the line it is and whether it will actually happen," he said. Desai went on to defend her role at Blackburn since the club was taken over in November by the Rao family in a �43m deal. Rovers became the first Indian-owned Premier League club when a trust set up by the late former owner Jack Walker to own the club sold its 99.9 per cent holding to the newly formed company Venky's London Limited.
