West Ham United striker Diafra Sakho is in demand, with his proposed move to West Brom under threat due to late interest from Sunderland, HITC report.

The Senegalese centre forward is being tipped to leave the Hammers this summer after a souring of his relationship with Salven Bilic and the club.

Sakho felt affronted after being left out of the West Ham team to face Arsenal late last season and the furore over the London club’s efforts to sign a new striker this summer have seen him ostracised.

West Brom are believed to have and a £15 million offer for the African attacker accepted by West Ham, with talk that the attacker was to undergo a medical at the Hawthorns.

However, Sunderland are ready to challenge the Baggies for Sakho’s services and could give the forward another potential option over his new destination.

Sam Allardyce’s exit from the Stadium of Light was said to have ended Sunderland’s interest in the West Ham star, but the Wearside club could well reenter the fray under David Moyes.
