Blackburn striker Sammie Szmodics has admitted that he fancies a Premier League move.

The forward has been in outstanding form, netting 33 goals and managing four assists in 48 games.

He won the Golden Boot in the Championship, but has ambitions to play at a higher level.

Speaking on the No Tippy Tappy Football podcast, the self-admitting West Ham supporter said: “Staying at Blackburn is a decision that's out of my hands because I still have two and a half years left on my contract.

“I love playing for Blackburn, it's a great football club, but obviously when you score 33 goals in a season there's going to be speculation.

“I don't think anyone would begrudge me a move if a Premier League team came calling. It is my dream to play in the Premier League, I'm not saying that opportunity will definitely arise, but I don't think people could blame me for wanting to go and play there.

“If a Premier League team came knocking then it would be stupid for me not to see what could happen."
