Diafra Sakho is back in contention for Wednesday night's Premier League clash with Watford.

The Senegalese striker has missed West Ham United's last three outings against Arsenal, Manchester United and Leicester City but is available for selection when the Hammers meet the Hornets at the Boleyn in 48 hours' time.

The 26-year-old forward has been out of action with what was described by Head of Sports Science Stijn Vandenbroucke as "a minor right knee injury", said to have been sustained during training 24 hours before the 3-3 draw with Arsenal last weekend.

Meanwhile rumours of a bust-up with manager Slaven Bilic have been dismissed by the club who insist that the injury was genuine and not simply created to cover up an ongoing issue with Sakho, who has netted six times for West Ham so far this season.
