Diafra Sakho, the Senegalese striker recently signed by West Ham from FC Metz, found himself in a rather alarming — yet ultimately harmless — domestic incident this week. As reported by The Sun, Sakho nearly set his apartment on fire in a moment of forgetfulness.
🔥 What Happened?
-
The forward put water on the stove to boil for tea.
-
He then stepped into the shower, inadvertently forgetting the boiling pot.
-
The unattended pot sparked a small fire in his kitchen.
-
Luckily, Sakho noticed in time and managed to extinguish the fire before it spread.
-
The fire alarm was triggered, forcing neighbors to evacuate the building as a precaution.
⚽ On the Field
Despite the off-field scare, Sakho has made an impressive start to his Premier League career, scoring 3 goals in his first four matches for West Ham.
Thankfully, the incident ended without injury or major damage — and hopefully, Sakho will now make tea after his shower!
