sak1West Ham striker Diafra Sakho is weighing up a move to Chinese side Shanghai Shenhua according to the Daily Express.They say they have learned the Senegal international has since been approached with a January offer from China.
Shanghai Shenhua are said to have come in for the 28-year-old and he is keen on a switch to the Far East. Diafra Sakho is out of contract with West Ham in the summer
A source close to the deal told the Daily Express: “Sakho and his agent are in talks about a move.“He has already been in contact with Shanghai Shenhua and seems really interested about going to the Super League.”Should Sakho make the move to Shanghai Shenhua, he would be linking up with former Premier League stars Obafemi Martins and Carlos Tevez.

The pair made the switch to the Far East in 2016 and 2017 respectively and are part of an ever-growing contingent of foreign stars in China.
