Blackburn confirm Tugay departure

Tugay
Tugay turns 39 in August

Veteran playmaker Tugay will leave Blackburn at the end of the season.

The former Galatasaray star, 38, who won 94 caps for Turkey, joined Rovers from Rangers for £1.3m in 2001.

Blackburn manager Sam Allardyce said: "We will say farewell at the end of the season and thank you very much for what you have done for Blackburn.

"Tugay has had a fantastic career, but the ever-increasing physical demands of the Premier League mean you cannot go on forever."
