It was thought that Wolverhampton Wanderers had been close to securing the signing of the 23-year-old, after they had a bid accepted earlier this week.
However, according to BBC Radio Lancashire, Blackburn have rivalled the offer for Murphy.
The Crewe academy graduate is expected to make a decision regarding his future over the weekend.
