Diafra Sakho to West Brom: West Ham striker to complete £16m move as Saido Berahino’s future hangs in balance

WEST BROM are due to unveil £16million striker Diafra Sakho today — but Saido Berahino’s future is still in the balance.

Baggies have agreed the club-record fee and personal terms for West Ham forward Sakho, 26.

But Albion are still to formally accept an offer for Berahino, with Stoke and Crystal Palace both battling it out for the controversial hitman.

Sakho’s signing was supposed to be announced by boss Tony Pulis yesterday but a delay to his medical pushed it back after the player underwent further scans.

Albion chiefs — desperate for more firepower up front — are confident the deal will go through.

Sakho handed in a transfer request this summer, with West Ham looking for new strikers.

Berahino, 22, is thought to favour a move to the Potters but his destination has yet to be decided.
