The West Ham United striker could be a useful addition to the West Bromwich Albion squad.
Baggies boss Alan Pardew will surely be looking to bolster his ranks in January, with his side currently deeply embroiled in a relegation battle.
One particular department that the 56-year-old will want to strengthen is his forward options, with the 12 Premier League goals that his side have scored so far this season being the fourth worst tally in the division.
With this in mind, West Brom should consider revisiting their interest in Hammers hitman Diafra Sakho, who will be allowed to leave the London Stadium for £12 million in January, according to the Daily Mail.

The 27-year-old striker has played a peripheral role for West Ham over the past 18 months, mostly due to his struggles with injury, but he still has a lot to offer at the very highest level, now that he has returned to his peak physically.
Sakho has pace in abundance, and his willingness to make selfless runs into the channels makes him the ideal strike partner for Jay Rodriguez, who does most of his work in and around the penalty area.
The Senegalese is also an accomplished finisher when presented with a goalscoring opportunity, and has scored 23 goals in 69 outings for the Hammers, with 23 of those appearances coming from the substitutes bench.
He would bring a much needed level of energy to the Baggies’ frontline, and if Pardew does in fact manage to sign him, it could turn out to be a really significant piece fo business for West Brom.
