Oh joy. Another day, another Sakho rumor. This time the rumor is, according to the Daily Mail, that Crystal Palace are now interested in the big Frenchman that is desperate to leave Anfield. Sam Allardyce is now apparently the next man to join the list of suitors.
This move would come as quite a bit of a surprise. You can see why Palace would be interested, as they have one of the worst defensive records in the league. Big Sam hasn’t really helped them improve very much so far, either.
But Sakho will surely not be too keen on moving to Selhurst Park, at least not permanently. And it’s also hard to imagine Liverpool doing anything but selling him outright for the desired amount.
Don’t expect this deal to get done because it just doesn’t seem like it would be a very good fit. Palace are in a relegation scrap, and they would be taking on a massive risk to buy such an expensive player at this time!
