Blackburn Rovers have completed the signing of Martin Olsson's twin brother Marcus, according to the player himself. Olsson, like his brother, is a full Sweden international and is also left sided, although he can also play up front. Now the 23-year-old has told the Swedish press that he has completed a move to Blackburn after his contract with Halmstads expired. "It feels great, I tried not to think about it too much before it was confirmed, but I signed today and can finally take a breather," Olsson told Hallandsposten. His agent claims he rejected a move to Italy to join Rovers. "Two clubs in Serie A and Standard Liege wanted him, but for Marcus it was a dream to play in the Premier League and even more so with his brother," Hasan Cetinkaya told Aftonbladet.
