West Ham United manager, Slaven Bilic, is prepared to offer Senegal international, Diafra Sakho, another chance to resurrect his career if the striker could move on from his failed transfer move to French side, Stade Rennes.
Sakho, who flew to Rennes and underwent a medical, was forced to return to West Ham on the final day of the transfer window after the two clubs failed to agree on a fee.
The 27-year-old Senegal international is available for Monday’s Premier league visit of Huddersfield Town as Bilic hopes to avoid a fourth straight defeat.
Bilic said: “The fact is he (Sakho) wanted to go there. He did a medical but the club decided not to sell him and he’s back.
“He looks good in training. Hopefully, he is going to stay like that for a long time because he will know that until January he is a West Ham player.
“That’s the way he’s going to get a new contract, or play again for Senegal, or get a move: if he plays good.”
Striker Andy Carroll could also make his return to the West Ham squad for the first time this season, while midfielder, Manuel Lanzini has been sidelined with a knee injury.
