Christopher Samba, A Blackburn defender was found twitting from North London a day before. Samba, who has been linked with Arsenal from the beginning of the transfer season had arrived North London on June 11. He had tweeted about him in twitter on the same day he arrived here.

I am sure he is not here for any kind of vacation. A player who had been heavily linked with Arsenal previously has arrived at North London. Now,you can speculate why he is here.

Samba revealed that he was close to join Arsenal last transfer season on January but some how the contract could not exist. But, Samba wants to play for Arsenal as is eager to move to a club challenging for the Champions League. Among Liverpool, Tottenham, Aston Villa and Arsenal, Arsenal is the only club that could find a way to Champions League. However, Arsenal's previous £10 million bid was unsuccessful and ever since Arsene Wenger had lost the fight against Manchester United for Phil Jones, he seemed more active in transfer market. He could have called him for discussions at North London.

The 26 years old Blackburn star has already spent his 5 years at Blackburn and wants to try some more adventures this season. His main target would be Champions League entrance.
Samba said,

"Many clubs have spoken to my agent. however I cannot fully comment on my future, as I need to make decisions."
"Football is more important than money, my aim is play in big football matches"
