Manchester United are keen on Hammers hitman Diafra Sakho – with Old Trafford scouts actively tracking the prolific Senegalese international.
The claims have been made by The Daily Mail, which suggests Louis Van Gaal is monitoring £15 million-rated Sakho.
West Ham have stressed that Sakho is not for sale at any price.
Talking specifically about Sakho, David Gold told the club’s website earlier this week: “I was delighted to see Diafra Sakho get among the goals straight away [against Lusitans in the Europa League].
“We have a lot of high hopes resting on Sakho this season, and he is the one who can surprise everyone. I believe he can become a world-class striker. He has the passion and attributes to be one of the top forwards in the Premier League.”
West Ham’s top goal scorer netted 12 goals in 26 appearances last season, including one against the Red Devils at Old Trafford. He also scored two goals last Thursday in West Ham’s 3-0 win against Lusitans.
Hey. Hands off Sakho. 😉
Oh no, don,t start all of this stuff.. I was just thinking things are going very smoothly
I think I’ll just let Spoonie answer this one for me lol
ahaha… I’m already inside my bunker… lol
Nothing to worry about i think. Being Sullivan’s wildcard he would be to proud to sell him. We know him and Valencia have no get out clauses and I don’t believe they would be tempted no matter the fee!
Thats the good thing about the club now. Our key players are tied up to long term contracts with no buy out clauses. (supposedly).
£15m! For a proven premiership international , try doubling it then jog on.
made me laught this people saying austin not worth 15 mil on another feed yet you said that. Haha
And we’d use that to buy what….a striker…so…no point.
every player has his price, but starting at 50 mil would be wishful thinking.
I’d argue that Diafra is more than a striker for me at the moment he is the spirit of the club. I’ve said before if he could pass on his enthusiasm to his team mates we’d be a better side so to me that’s priceless. I’m also a dreamer and know in reality every player has a price just in case I get the Spoonie treatment lol
Stinking Manure can **** right off,he aint for sale.The Not for Sale signs have been put up & if the board do sell him then they are just a bunch of ****ing two faced *******s!!!
You didn’t let me down Spoonie lol
So, if I read between the lines, you’d say that this might not be the best course of action to consider?
Jack said he aint for sale,so it aint an issue.But if we did sell him for anything round the 15-20m mark then the board would be two faced ****ers!We aint a selling club they said.They better not ****ing be bull****ting us!
Newspaper horsesh*t i expect,if not & we did sell him then i agree with everything i think spoonie said about the board,lol.They did after all say were not a selling club anymore 😀
Agent trying to get more money,who knows,we are not going to sell for treble that because you can not buy a player like him for less than £45 million,
He is a keeper and the club needs to say nothing do nothing and ignore any requests,
Just newspaper rubbish.He was bound to be linked to someone this summer.Surprised it has taken until now.
