Sunderland submit £11million bid for West Ham striker Diafra Sakho

Premier League outfit Sunderland have officially submitted an £11million bid for West Ham striker Diafra Sakho. 

Sunderland coach boss Sam Allardyce is eyeing a reunion with the striker he signed from Metz for £3.5million two years ago when he was in charge at Upton Park. 

Diafra Sakho finished his first season in east London as West Ham top scorer, but injuries restricted him to just four Premier League goals last season. 

The striker is thought to be keen on the move as the 26-year-old eyes first-team football.
