Gold won't rule out Sakho sale

David Gold says that West Ham are not planning to part company with Diafra Sakho - without completely ruling out the sale of the in-form striker.

Last week the 25-year-old, who scored 12 goals in his first season in the Premier League was linked with a £15million move to Manchester United.

And when questioned about the possibility of the Senegal international leaving the Boleyn Ground this summer, just 12 months after signing from Metz in a cut-price £4million deal, Gold hedged his bets by refusing to rule anything out.

Hammers fan Peter Morris asked the club's co-owner on Twitter: What's the likelihood of us selling Sakho?" - to which the 78-year-old simply replied: "There are no plans to sell Sakho."



The striker has not travelled to Malta with the rest of his team mates as he is currently serving a three-match European suspension, having been sent off in the 1-0 win in Andorra against Lusitanos in the previous round.

West Ham face Birkirkara in the second leg of their Europa League, second qualifying round tie in Malta tonight.
