Blackburn star Chris Samba has told the club he wants to join Arsenal.
The 27-year-old defender was linked with a switch to the Emirates Stadium in January but talks between the Gunners and Rovers broke down. 
Samba then penned fresh terms at Ewood Park which will tie him to Lancashire until 2015.
But Anuradha Desai — chairperson of Rovers' owners Venkys — admitted Samba iss still keen on a move to north London.
Desai said: "We don't want to let Chris go. I'm confident that we can keep him and I hope he'll stay.
"I know he has an ambition to play for Arsenal but I hope we can keep him for another year at least and prove our own ambition."
