Maiga to return pre season

Posted by Sean Whetstone on May 24, 2015 in Whispers

maigaMaiga came on as a second half substitute for Metz’s last game of the season to complete his season long loan for the French outfit. Despite his appearance on 56 minutes Metz lost their final game to Lille 4-1.  Metz are relegated from Ligue 1 which former Metz striker Diafra Sakho help them achieve. In the 2013–14 season Sakho scored 20 goals in 36 appearances as Metz won the Ligue 2 title. For his performances, Sakho was voted Ligue 2 Player of the Year for the 2013–14 season.

Maiga will now report back for training with West Ham in late June when the pre season campaign begins unless a new loan deal can be found. Maiga signed West Ham for a reported £4.7m from Sochaux scoring 6 goals for the Hammers from 37 appearances.

Metz were thought to paying just £6,000 of Maiga £30,000 per week wages. He has one year remaining on his West Ham contract worth around £1.5m in wages.

    Nolan back in the team,Cole starts but surprisingly no starting places for BFS stalwarts Jaaskelainen and O’Brien in the hippo’s last hurrah. In 160 minutes it’ll be time for West Ham football loving fans to give a long and loud cheer

    Noble has a toe injury i believe,so Slowlan is playing.That should give Newcastle a big lift 😉

  8. mattefumi's had enough of BFS May 24, 2015 at 2:18 pm

    Is Nolan in the starting lineup?

    • Quickdraw May 24, 2015 at 2:20 pm

  9. Boys of '66 May 24, 2015 at 2:20 pm

    Oooooh, it’s wonderful! His last joke. His rubbish swan song… No surprises, it’s the idiot’s routine…

    They just said on the BBC site wouldn’t it be odd if Rob Lee’s son Elliot scored the goal to send Newcastle down. The BBC don’t the BFS very well

  12. mattefumi's had enough of BFS May 24, 2015 at 2:31 pm

    ahhaha… well, 30 minutes and then I’ll watch his last rubbish show… today I feel zen… lol

      At 17:45 (Italian time) wash your eyes to remove the horror and then take a seat for the genius to say the only words we’ve wanted to hear for ages “I’m leaving West Ham”

  13. mattefumi's had enough of BFS May 24, 2015 at 2:39 pm
