Report: Sakho to undergo new medical

|

sak1West Ham striker Diafra Sakho is expected to spend Sunday undergoing a new medical according to website France Football.

Sakho’s agents are believed to be discussing a potential loan move to Ligue 1 side Rennes with a fixed price to buy if his scores a certain number of goals. The Daily Mail claims ‘Rennes are now proposing a loan with a view to making the deal permanent for £10m should Sakho score seven goals.”

Crystal Palace, Swansea, Newcastle, West Brom and Bordeaux have all informally enquired for Sakho’s availability this month but no-one has made a formal bid.

In the last twenty-four hours rumours have resurfaced that Crystal Palace will attempt to make a late bid for Sakho before the January transfer window slams shut.  Last week Hammers coach Alan Irvine revealed there had been ‘no bids’ made for Sakho.

Sakho flew to France to undergo a medical on deadline day in the Summer to force through a transfer but was later forced to return to East London with his tail between his legs after a misunderstanding whether he had permission to speak to Rennes.

    Out on loan ? 😂😂 so no money to spend then as we needed to sell before we buy ? They had the chance to sell over two weeks ago ! He’s a free agent in the summer isn’t he ? At the end of the window he’s now having a medical so he can score 7 goals even though he’s injured 😂 and if he doesn’t he’s a free agent as said anyway ?
    Who makes these decisions at west ham ! Surely not Sullivan 😂😂 does he have permission like he did last time !! What a farce ! Its embarrassing and misleading to everyone
    What’s transpiring at the club ! Relegation is a real concern for me , its a royal mess 😎

    Perhaps they have realised they cannot afford super mario’s wages & have to save money somehow either way it is a mess what is happening re Dendoncker transfer one minute it was on the next Moyes changes his mind apparently he was the same at Man U dithered so long he missed getting Fellaini on the cheap & when he finally made u his mind he had to pay more for him. well this is not good enough Moyes should have lined up all the players he wanted at least a month ago not leave it until a week to go
