Crystal Palace reportedly make a £10m bid for West Ham United forward Diafra Sakho, who is currently in France after undergoing a medical with Rennes.

Crystal Palace have reportedly made a £10m bid for West Ham United forward Diafra Sakho.

It is understood that Sakho is currently in France having undergone a medical with French outfit Rennes.

It was thought that the Senegal international was nearing a move to the Ligue 1 outfit, but according to Sky Sports News, Palace have stepped in at the final moment with an offer of £10m.

The 27-year-old scored 10 Premier League goals in 23 appearances for the Hammers during the 2014-15 season, but an injury-plagued couple of years has seen the forward appear in just six league matches since the start of last season.

Palace are seeking competition for Christian Benteke in the final third of the field.
