Middlesbrough's move for Blackburn Rovers striker Jordan Rhodes has collapsed.

The two Championship clubs agreed a fee, thought to be about 拢9m, and the 25-year-old held negotiations with promotion-chasing Boro.

However, Boro said they were with the player.

The Scotland international has scored 83 goals in 169 appearances for Blackburn, with 11 of those strikes coming this season.

Rhodes joined Blackburn from Huddersfield for 拢8m in 2012.
