Diafra Sakho breaks silence on France move

Sky Sports Kaveh Solhekol has spoken Diafra Sakho’s representatives today who confirmed the player remains in France but is flying back to the UK this afternoon but say he defiantly wants to leave West Ham. He wants to setup a meeting this afternoon with West Ham’s co-owners to tell them face to face he wants to leave West Ham but Solhekol said that might be difficult as David Sullivan is on holiday at the moment.

Solhekol then reveals some direct quotes from Diafra Sakho “I have had a frustrating time for the past couple of seasons, I want a fresh start to get back to France, I have no issues with the West Ham fans but I want to leave now”  

Sky say he will not be going to Crystal Palace, despite the fact they made a £10m bid yesterday.

Rennes are willing to give West Ham everything they have asked for – including a big fee up front and a sell-on clause.
