Chris Samba, Steve Kean rift continues

Blackburn skipper Chris Samba reportedly refuses to take part in a friendly or training on Tuesday afternoon.

Blackburn Rovers skipper Chris Samba has continued his feud with boss Steve Kean by refusing to take part in training this week.

The 27-year-old defender was also due to take part in a behind-closed-doors reserve fixture with Carlisle on Tuesday, but did not feature.

Kean had hoped to have Samba available for the tie with Queens Park Rangers on Saturday afternoon, but the defender is still unhappy at the club's decision to reject his transfer request in January.

It is understood that relations between the pair have reached a desperate stage, and it is not clear whether Samba will feature for the club again this season.

The Congo international joined Rovers from Hertha Berlin in 2006.
