West Ham Set to Reward Diafra Sakho with Improved Contract
LONDON – Diafra Sakho’s impressive start to life in the Premier League has not gone unnoticed by West Ham United. Just three months after his move from FC Metz, the 24-year-old Senegalese striker is reportedly in line for a new and improved contract.
Sakho, who originally signed with the Hammers until 2018, has quickly cemented his place in the starting lineup. With 6 goals in 8 appearances, his performances have made him a standout figure in the early part of the season.
According to The Sun, the club is prepared to reward his form by extending his deal until 2019 or even 2020, along with a salary boost that could see him earn approximately €2.6 million per year.
Such a move would not only reflect Sakho’s value to the squad but also fend off any potential interest from rival clubs.
