L’Equipe: ‘West Ham changed their minds on Sakho’

It really does seem to be open season on the West Ham board at the moment. The latest revelation coming out of France today is that West Ham initially agreed to let Diafra Sakho go only to change their minds later.

French newspaper L’Equipe reports that Rennes believed a transfer was on the way, which they say would explain the French club putting Sakho through a medical last week.

The paper claims Rennes ‘found an agreement’ with West Ham, only for the Premier League club to then change their mind, and decide Sakho would be staying as a Hammer. L’Equipe suggests West Ham’s poor start to the season may have played a part in the transfer collapse, and it’s explained Rennes’ attempts to get things sorted out fell on ‘deaf ears’.
The latest claim if it is to be believed is probably more an indication of the shady world of agents. In both the Sporting Lisbon and Rennes disputes football agents have played a major role as the go betweens and this is likely where the problems lay.
