Blackburn Rovers’ new owner has once again spoken of its plans to sell the naming rights to Ewood Park after completing its takeover of the club at the end of last week.
Poultry giant Venky's, which becomes the first Indian company to own a Premier League club, will either name the ground after itself or another sponsor.
Venky's chairman Anuradha Desai said: "We need to improve the brand Blackburn Rovers. The management thus far has done a good job but has not been proactive enough. We are looking to change that.
"Arsenal named their stadium 'The Emirates' after their main sponsors. Our stadium could be called ‘Venky's Stadium’ or could adopt the name of another sponsor.
"We are looking to spread the name of Blackburn Rovers wherever we can. India is our major target.”
