Diafra Sakho is close to agreeing new terms with the Irons which will see him double his money to around £30k a week basic.
We first reported several weeks ago that the player would be rewarded personally by co chairman David Sullivan for his excellence and we understand terms are now close to being agreed.
Until now a percentage of Sakho’s wages has been paid on appearances but the new deal will see him with goal and appearance clauses.
Initially the new deal was planned after 25 games but it could now kick in before that with the player having made 14 league and two Cup appearances.
Good lets keep him safe from the wolfs but not sure 30k per week will last more than this season lets hope he gets as good as Nolan then he can take 50k per week for turning up.
Great player with great attitude just like Enner, two stars we should never consider selling. We build a team around these two, Song, Kouyate, Cresswell, Downing.. We do not build a team around Nolan and O’Brien.
