Ipswich Town's chances of signing Sam Gallagher are now completely dead after news that Blackburn Rovers will not be signing front man Duncan McGuire.

The EADT and Ipswich Star reported yesterday that Rovers had changed their minds over selling Gallagher having initially been reception to negotiations of a £2m deal.

Any slim chances that stance could change before tonight's 11pm transfer deadline have now been extinguished by news that Blackburn's deal for Orlando City striker McGuire has collapsed.

Bournemouth striker Kieffer Moore is understood to be the Blues' prime target. 

BREAKING: Duncan McGuire's $4m transfer from Orlando City to Blackburn has COLLAPSED while McGuire is currently on a flight to England, sources say.

Blackburn notified Orlando that they had to pull out of the deal.

TBD what's next for McGuire. https://t.co/dpOegr0AvZ
