Maceo Rigters signs for Blackburn

Dutch Under-21 prospect Maceo Rigters has completed a move to Blackburn. Blackburn beat Scottish champions Celtic, Championship side Norwich City and Newcastle United for his signature.

The Dutch under-21 international had a clause in his contract with NAC Breda that allowed him to move on for less than £1 million.

Rigters has signed him on a four year deal.

Rovers chairman John Williams: "The Dutch lad is someone that Mark likes. I know that he admires him a lot."
