Rovers are down in 24th [the relegation places] but manager Owen Coyle insists he will be given funds to bring in new faces. Byrne will be heading in the opposite direction. Coyle told the Lancashire Telegraph:
"I have had dialogue with Manchester City over Jack Byrne who we know is a very talented player. He will have a terrific career but I think it’s important Jack gets some game-time and he’s not had that of late. "To be fair he has been ill over Christmas. The likelihood is that Jack will return to Manchester City and get some game-time, whether that be with another loan spell or in the youth teams."Despite his precocious talents, one would not expect Byrne to command a first-team spot in the immediate future after a less than stellar loan spell at Ewood Park.
