West Ham striker reveals he wants to leave Hammers: I have nothing against fans or Bilic
Diafra Sakho still wants to leave West Ham

Sakho tried to force through a move away from West Ham in the summer and even had a medical at Ligue 1 club Rennes.

But the Hammers refused to sell the Senegal international so late on in the window as they failed to sign a replacement.

The 27-year-old, who has scored three goals in nine appearances so far this season, admits he still plans to leave West Ham though.

Sakho said: "I still want to leave, I always say it. I don't hide it. Fans happy or not, I want to change environment.

"I want to see something else in regard to everything that's happened to me. I've spent three wonderful years at West Ham.

"I can only be happy but overall I want to change my environment to see other things and I think going to France would be good to find a challenge for my career.

"I just went to the medicals, see the club, other people.

"I think both clubs agreed that I go to do the medicals but after maybe there was not enough time for West Ham to allow me to go because the didn't find a replacement.

"That's normal. After I understood and I come back here. But that didn't change my desire to leave."

He added: "Today, I'm happy to be here. In my mind, the way I see things nothing has changed. I have been booed during games, fans unhappy with me, that's normal.

"I have nothing against the fans, players or manager. But nobody convinced me to stay."
