Jake's no fake: Irons want to sign Blackburn keeper Kean

West Ham are interested in bringing Blackburn goalkeeper Jake Kean to the Boleyn Ground, according to the East London and West Essex Guardian.

The young stopper has been a shining light in a dismal season for Rovers in the Championship and has become first choice for the Ewood Park club after pushing himself ahead of former England international Paul Robinson in the pecking order for the Lancashire outfit.

Now, the 22 year old could be set for a Premier League move as Hammers boss Sam Allardyce prepares to raid his old club. Kean is now the third goalkeeper to be linked with the East London club in the last 24 hours, despite the adamance of a club source yesterday that 'a high profile goalkeeper' is unlikely to be on Allardyce's 'agenda.'
