QPR rejected "massive offer" for Samba
Harry Redknapp is relieved QPR chairman Tony Fernandes turned down a "massive offer" for Christopher Samba from an unnamed Russian club last week.
The 28-year-old arrived from Anzhi Makhachkala for a club-record fee on transfer deadline day, penning a four-and-a-half year deal at Loftus Road.
However, Redknapp has revealed QPR were offered more than what they forked out for Samba by another Russian club last week ahead of the end of their own transfer window.
"We had an offer for Samba, right on the deadline and the chairman turned it down," Redknapp said after Saturday's 2-1 win at Southampton.
