Blackburn boss Steve Kean is hopeful of keeping Junior Hoilett at the club beyond the end of the season.

The 21-year-old's contract expires at the end of the campaign, with Spurs heavily linked with a move for the winger.

"We would like to think that the way that hes playing, hes been playing with a spring in his step and hes back to the form that he had before the transfer window opened, so weve not given up on that," said Kean, quoted in the Lancashire Telegraph.

"There's no reason why moving forward we can't agree something and get pen put to paper on the appropriate time.

"I think what he's got to do is just forget about everything, and just make sure he's playing and performing the way he is.

"We've not given up and if it gets to the end of the season and we are where we think were going to be, there's no reason why Junior can't agree a contract with us."

If Hoilett were to leave Blackburn, Rovers would be entitled to a fee as the player is under 24-years-old.
