Blackburn hope to have veteran striker Christian Vieri on show when they play in a three-team tournament in Croatia on Saturday.
The 36-year-old, released by Atalanta at the end of last season, has spent a week on trial with Sam Allardyce's squad at their training camp in northern Italy.
But Vieri was not involved in Rovers' 2-2 draw in a friendly against Roma in Bolzano on Thursday despite being expected to play.
Blackburn have now moved on to Split in Croatia for the second leg of their summer tour.
They will play in a tournament involving Hajduk Split and CD National from Portugal and Vieri is expected to get a run-out then.

Not so sure about Vieri..Rovers shud really be looking for top quality strikers if wer to make a serious challenge in the prem this coming season....i wud say Vieri is way past his best and probaly would struggle in the prem so come on big Sam splash the cash get a decent striker
Atalanta are glad to see the back of him and Fiorentina couldn't wait to ship him off previously... BUT, Vieri was once one of the top strikers in the world. Let's see what he can do rather than write him off as a has-been
ore tua larak lg ko nk men epl ni..
