desire to novate
"Novate" is essentially replacing an old debt with a new one - refinancing, if you will. From Aurelio:
2. Jur. Negócio jurídico pelo qual o devedor contrai com o credor nova dívida para extinguir e substituir obrigação anterior (novação objetiva) ou pelo qual é substituído o credor ou o devedor por terceiro (novação subjetiva). [V. delegação (4) e expromissão.]
It could also mean "to subrogate" if the second definition is chosen, but that does not seem to be what they mean; from the limited context provided it seems that they wish to amend a loan agreement, and not refinance it.
I would say "the desire to" rather than "the will to," as "to have the will" has another meaning that is not implied here. For instance, I can have the "desire" to go to the gym, but not the "will" to actually make it there.

: I don't think "desire to novate" is the correct technical term. although it is the literal translation.
