Jon Dahl Tomasson began his rivalry with Vincent Kompany within hours of arriving at Blackburn by going head-to-head with him for a flat.
Tomasson viewed a property on Wednesday and was told by the estate agent that Burnley ’s new boss Kompany is also keen. Blackburn’s director of football, Gregg Broughton, who accompanied the new Rovers manager, said: “As soon as he arrived at Blackburn, we went flat hunting in Lancashire.
“The estate agent told us it was between him and Vincent, who also wants it. I suggested they flat share, but that’s not going to happen!”
