QPR have triggered a release clause in Christopher Samba’s contract at Anzhi, which could see the former Blackburn Rovers defender heading back to England.
I, for one, would love to see Samba back in the top flight. He’s a brilliant defender, a greater header of the ball and is one of those footballers who can make a massive difference for any club, most especially Queens Park Rangers.
