Jordan Rhodes shrugged off the fierce speculation over his future by snatching an injury-time winner for Blackburn at Ewood Park . This derby was drifting towards a goalless draw when Tom Cairney sent over a corner with 15 seconds remaining of the four added minutes . Doneil Henry flicked on and Rhodes stuck out a boot to score his 14th goal of the season from close range . It was an amazing finish after 48 hours of questions about the possibility of the striker leaving Blackburn .

Middlesbrough have offered to take Rhodes to the Riverside on loan for the rest of the season with a view to signing him permanently for a fee of £8million , potentially rising to £10m . Their Championship promotion rivals Derby , Norwich , Sheffield Wednesday and Nottingham Forest have also registered an interest in Blackburn ’ s record £8m signing who still has four-and-a-half years left on his contract at Ewood . But having rejected a £12m offer from Hull City last summer , Blackburn ’ s owners Venky ’ s are reluctant to sell while their club still have an outside chance of reaching the playoffs following this win , as well as the prospect of a FA Cup quarter-final replay with Liverpool next month . Asked if he has been given assurances that Rhodes will not be sold , manager Gary Bowyer replied : ‘ Yes , it just wouldn ’ t add up . Why would you loan out your top goalscorer ? My five-year-old nephew might be able to work that one out . ‘ I can ’ t answer on behalf of Middlesbrough but Jordan has just scored the winner and he will be starting at Charlton on Saturday . ‘ He just handles the speculation enormously well . I was quietly confident of him scoring tonight , to be perfectly honest , because that ’ s what he does when there ’ s all the talk. ’ Bowyer described this as Blackburn ’ s best win of the season after the physical and mental energy his players exerted in Sunday ’ s goalless draw with Liverpool at Anfield . They lost Corry Evans and Markus Olsson to injury in the first-half but Ben Marshall should have put them ahead in stoppage time when he headed over from Craig Conway ’ s cross . Substitute Craig Davies wasted Bolton ’ s best chance when he raced clear only to shoot straight at Jason Steele , and Rhodes should have scored with a 79th -minute header from close-range before making amends at the death . Conceding another yet another late goal was a sickener for Bolton who are still not free of relegation danger .

We ’ d be home and hosed but we still have a bit of work to do . ‘ If we can ’ t defend a set-piece in the last 30 seconds of the game… the players aren ’ t learning so we ’ ve got some work to do to make them mentally stronger because it ’ s obviously a psychological thing . ‘ You think it can ’ t happen again then lo and behold it does . I ’ m lost for words . ’
