Express and Star reported Matt Maher confirms that Sakho agreed personal terms to the move and the club were waiting on final scans before completing the deal.
They have decided not to go ahead with the deal, maybe because of what they’ve seen on the scans.
Sakho struggled mightily with muscular injuries in the last two years which might have been flagged up in the medical.
