  Arsenal have kicked off their summer shake-up plans with an £8million bid  for Blackburn defender Chris Samba.

  Boss Arsene Wenger has put a dominant centre half at the top of his shopping list after another disappointing season without a trophy.

  Samba, 27, revealed this month that he came close to leaving Ewood Park in the January transfer window.

  ‘Everybody knows that I am an ambitious player. I think a move to Arsenal was very close in January but that is life.’
