Redknapp to snap up Samba

Tottenham is reportedly preparing a January move for Christopher Samba. The Congo international is valued at £10M.

Samba has played 14 of Blackburn's 18 matches this season and has scored two goals; impressive for a center-back. Redknapp believes that the 1.93cm defender would make a great partner for Dawson in the heart of Spurs defence.

Dawson is supposed to make a return in early January after his injury. Spurs are third in the league with seven points away from league toppers Man City and Man Utd.
