Report: Sakho to undergo new medical
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.
