Diafra Sakho's West Ham contract includes two-year option that the club can trigger to keep him in east London

Diafra Sakho's contract with West Ham includes a two-year option that the club can trigger to keep the supposedly unhappy striker at the London Stadium, it can be revealed.

The Senegal international was left frustrated in the summer after missing out on a move to French side Rennes on deadline day.

West Ham are in a strong position with their two-year option on Sakho but could still try to hand him an improved contract if he continues to perform. That was what they did with Michail Antonio, whose fine form last season saw him rewarded with a double-your-money deal.
