Andre Ooijer has admitted he may
leave Blackburn Rovers in the summer, even though he
has a contract until 2009.
The Dutch defender has been linked
with a couple of clubs in his homeland, namely Feyenoord
and PSV Eindhoven, but is trying to focus on Euro 2008
by leaving matters with his agent.
Although only extending his contract recently, he told
Sportweek: "I appreciated it then but, a moment
later, I was sat on the bench.
"I am not happy about that.
"I do not wish to continuously sit on the bench.
"You should never say very strongly: 'I want away',"
he demanded.
"I have talked with Sigi Lens, my agent, and agreed
that I would concentrate on the European Championship
and the rest is up to him.
"Sigi knows what I want. Back to Holland? I have
not thought about it - there will be a price-tag on
my head.
"Again, I'm not saying I want to go down that
road.
"I am open to another club, even though it was
necessary that I always said 'no' immediately."
