Santa Cruz has only found the net four times this season
|
Blackburn striker Roque Santa Cruz says he would leave Ewood Park if a "better or an ambitious club" offered him the chance to improve his form.
Santa Cruz was signed by now Manchester City boss Mark Hughes and he has been linked with a move to Eastlands.
"I would really like to keep improving and performing better than I am doing right now," Santa Cruz told the BBC.
"And if a better or an ambitious club come in and want to offer me the chance I would like to take it."
Whether the Paraguayan gets an opportunity to leave Ewood Park will depend on new Blackburn manager Sam Allardyce, who said on Thursday that he does not have to sell any of his players in the January transfer window.
And the-27-year-old Santa Cruz said it would hard for him to leave the club which he joined from Bayern Munich in 2007.

606: DEBATE

"My contract with Blackburn is clear and for that I need to continue with the club," he told BBC Radio 5 Live.
"But I am looking to again play in a big side that is in Europe and trying to win their league.
"I have to say the people here at Blackburn are fantastic. I am very happy with the fans, but I don't want to miss the chance of playing with a big side.
"I also understand the interests of Blackburn as well and they do not want to lose players. I want to watch out for myself but I have to think of Blackburn. It is a very hard decision."
In August Hughes tried to lure the forward to Manchester but his attempts to sign the player for a second time fell flat when Blackburn rejected his bid.
Following Hughes's efforts the club was quick to tie the Paraguay international to a new deal, keeping him at Ewood Park until 2012.
Santa Cruz has only scored four goals this season compared to last term, when he found the net 23 times.
