Sky Sports are claiming West Ham have rejected a second offer from Rennes for striker Diafra Sakho.
The report says West Ham turned down a follow-up offer worth up to £10m, including add-ons, for the Senegal international striker after knocking back Rennes’ initial bid of £6m last week. Sky Sports say they understand Bordeaux’s new manager Gus Poyet is also interested in signing the 28-year-old.
Last week the wantaway striker has linked to a possible loan to Besiktas as well as rumours about a move across London to Crystal Palace with Sky later claiming that Roy Hodgson changed his mind.
Senior sources close to the club has previously said there have been no formal bids for the striker so it remains to be seen whether the latest reports have any truth in them or just wishful thinking on part of the agents involved.
I can’t see the boars turning down £10m unless they have other offers coming in also the first bid was a loan bid I thought not £6m.
