Slav so happy as “Sakho time” draws closer
That Slav should made a point of speaking about Sak’s state of mind is significant given previous issues between the pair a few months ago and the failed medical at West Brom.
Many fans have held the view that the Senegal striker is still looking for a way out of the club so Slav’s words are an encouragement to those who remain big fans of the player.
Speaking on the shape of the the squad’s fitness he said: “Diafra Sakho is very happy now. He’s running and doesn’t feel any problems.
Hopefully the back problems that were the cause of all those problems with his hamstrings, which the doctor says is quite common, (have gone away).
In a few weeks time he will start to train with us. He will be a like a great new signing.
On other fronts Slav revealed: ” Aaron Cresswell is good and looks sharp. Robert Snodgrass missed training during the week with diarrhoea but he was back in training on Thursday.
Arthur Masuaku is back and sharp, looks really good. So we have options now in basically every position. Even Angelo Ogbonna is recovering really good from his knee operation. So it’s good.”
