Kean insists Samba is not for sale

Mon, 16 Jan 13:49:02 2012

Blackburn manager Steve Kean has reiterated his stance that Chris Samba is not for sale and he hopes the defender will be available for selection next weekend.

Samba, who has been linked with Tottenham, QPR and Paris St Germain, missed Saturday's win over Fulham after calling in sick the previous day.

His absence aroused suspicion, however, as it came in the wake of an interview he did with L'Equipe in which he was quoted as saying, "It is time for a change".

However, Kean is determined to hang on to Samba, who signed a new five-year contract with the club almost a year ago.

"He's not for sale, it's as simple as that," he told the Lancashire Telegraph.

"He'll be back in again and hopefully ready for Everton."

  1. A review of the goals conceded by the Rovers this­ season indicates that Mr Samba is not as good as he­ thinks he is.He will be sold,hopefully Nelson will­ return and along with Givet who is a good central­ defender and Hanley who is improving rapidly will­ prove a better bet.Samba is not the same threat in the­ opposition box now as he is accused of foul play most­ times he goes there.
    Kean is still doing his­ best,obviously he will say Samaba is not for sale to­ boost the offers.
