All Whites skipper to play alongside Ronaldinho and Beckham?

07:07 am on 5 January 2011

The All Whites skipper Ryan Nelsen could find himself playing alongside Ronaldinho and David Beckham at English premier league football club Blackburn Rovers.

Blackburn have made a move for AC Milan playmaker Ronaldinho by offering him a deal worth about $50 million over three years.

Venky's, the Indian poultry company that bought Rovers last year, says it's in talks with Ronaldinho's manager.

The club also says it's atempting to sign Beckham on loan from the Los Angeles Galaxy.

Beckham has been the subject of much transfer speculation with several Premier league clubs waiting to hear whether the LA Galaxy will release the former England captain during the Major League off season.
