West Ham transfer news: Hammers still want Wilfried Bony with Enner Valencia and Diafra Sakho to make way for Manchester City striker
Strikers Diafra Sakho and Enner Valencia could still be on their way out of West Ham as the club look to bring in Wilfried Bony on loan from Manchester City.
Senegalese international Sakho looked to be going to West Brom in a £16million deal earlier in the summer but failed a medical. West Brom remain desperate to improve their squad, however, and could come back with a cut-price offer before the transfer window closes tomorrow night.
Sakho, who put in a transfer request earlier in the close season, is recovering from injury and has yet to figure in any of West Ham’s matches although manager Slaven Bilic said: “He is our player and when he is ready, he will be playing for us.”
West Ham are also willing to listen to offers for Valencia but only if they seal a deal to sign Bony on loan, with Championship clubs Aston Villa and Norwich poised to make late bids for the Ecuadorian international.
Slaven Bilic eyes another striker after completing Simone Zaza signing at the weekend
