West Ham forward Diafra Sakho has refused to go on West Ham's pre-season tour to Austria, as the Senegalese forward wants out of the east London club.

Sakho handed in a transfer request earlier this month, following Slaven Bilic's claims that he wantd to sign a "top" striker.

The 26-year-old appears to be on Sunderland's radar who had an £11m bid rejected for the forward.

The Senegal international has made 50 appearances for West Ham in two seasons, scoring 19 goals for the Hammers.

Where next for Diafra Sakho?
