Graeme Souness admits he is still tracking Coventry winger David Thompson.
The Blackburn Rovers manager is keen to strengthen his side ahead of the opening Premiership game against Sunderland.
Thompson was signed from Liverpool two years ago for £3million.
Souness told Blackburn Clubcall: "We are trying to strengthen our right hand side and have an interest in Thompson. But at the moment we are miles apart in the fee."
