Where is Diafra Sakho now?

Diafra Sakho left West Ham United in January 2018 but where is the former Hammers striker now?

Sakho netted 24 times for the Hammers in all competitions in 71 appearances, netting some important goals for the club (Transfermarkt).

The Senegal international got his name on the scoresheet in West Ham’s final match at Upton Park to help the team to a famous 3-2 victory over Manchester United (BBC Sport).

Some Hammers fans feel he had plenty of potential to succeed in London but his attitude let him down.

But where is he now?

CURRENT CLUB

Sakho is currently a free agent after French side Rennes terminated his contract in December 2019, six months before it was due to expire (Goal).

FORM THIS SEASON

The centre-forward didn’t play a single minute for Rennes in the first half of the season, making the matchday squad just once for the Ligue 1 clash with SCO Angers (Transfermarkt).

CURRENT SITUATION

The forward is still without a club and is only 30 years of age, meaning he could be hoping to sign a deal with a new club in the summer.
