Balazs Toth has remained with Blackburn Rovers despite strong interest from Celtic. Alan Nixon states that the club and the goalkeeper are set to hold discussions to clarify his situation now that a transfer is no longer an option. Celtic made an offer for Toth late in the transfer window for £2.5m, which was £1.5m below the rumoured £4m asking price set by Blackburn. As there was no suitable bid from Celtic and no other offers arose, Toth remains at Ewood Park. Toth had turned down a renewal, and it had emerged that he would be allowed to move for the right price.

Blackburn Rovers have rejected a £2.5m bid from Celtic for Balazs Toth. The offer was made on Tuesday, formalising interest from Celtic who had been monitoring the Hungary international. According to Alan Nixon, Rovers rejected the offer and are maintaining their £4m valuation for the player. Toth, who rejected a new contract earlier this summer, has been unhappy in training in recent days and is set to be dropped for the Tuesday night game against Lincoln City. There is currently a lack of agreement between the two clubs and with the 11pm deadline approaching, there is concern a transfer might not happen. This could potentially prompt the player or his agent to take action to lower Blackburn's £4m price tag. If Celtic were to pursue other options, Toth may be offered to other clubs to facilitate a move before his value diminishes in the final year of his contract.
