Blackburn Rovers' summer signing Leon Best is injured in the club's friendly win over AEK Athens.

Blackburn Rovers striker Leon Best has given the club an injury headache ahead of the new season after he suffered a knee injury in Blackburn's 2-1 win over AEK Athens.

Best joined Blackburn from Newcastle United earlier in the summer, but he was forced off just before half-time as his new club beat their Greek opponents.

The Republic of Ireland international will undergo a scan on Monday.

The 25-year-old had earlier scored Blackburn's second goal in the match before he was replaced.
