Blackburn Rovers defender Christopher Samba wants Arsenal move

[LNB]"At the minute I'm at Blackburn. We'll see what happens," Samba said after captaining his club in the Asia Trophy yesterday against Aston Villa. [LNB]"It's difficult, but I'm just waiting to see what happens and concentrating on my preparation…I don't know about Arsenal as I'm not dealing with it. [LNB]"(But) If you get a player who has no ambition to play higher he made a mistake and chose the wrong sport. He should do something else. When you're a footballer or play any high profile sport you should be ambitious. It's not my problem and I'm just trying to get myself fit. [LNB]"Of course I'd like to play in the Champions League, which player doesn't dream of that? It would be a lie if I told you 'everything is good and I don't want to play in the Champions League.' That would be a big lie. Every player wants to do that." [LNB]Related Articles
