Forgotten Iron set for shock recall
We understand that Andre Ayew is feeling unwell but no decisions will be made until the morning when final checks are run over the squad.
However, it seems more than possible that with such a lack of right sided options, Sakho, who has been named in the squad could take his place on the right side should Ayew cry off through illness.
The front man scored in Senegal’s World Cup qualifying victory over South Africa – his second at international level in recent weeks.
Moyes has been unable to escape the injury/illness jinx that tends to hit the Hammers but we understand Sakho has been a different character since returning to find a new manager in place.
He is fit and in form and ready to show the new manager that he retains his enthusiasm to prove himself at the club – his chance may have come.
