West Ham United poised to offer Diafra Sakho new deal?

Senegalese striker Diafra Sakho is expected to be offered a new bumper deal at West Ham United, according to reports.

The 25-year-old has scored 10 goals in 16 games since signing for the Hammers, but the club was recently fined £71,000 for fielding him in the FA Cup after he withdrew from Senegal's Africa Cup of Nations squad through injury.

Sakho signed a four-year contract when he moved to Upton Park, but is now poised to see his wages doubled as Sam Allardyce seeks to secure his long-term future, reports the Sunday People.

He has made three appearances for Senegal, scoring one goal, since making his international debut last year.
