L’Equipe have a feature in their Friday edition on French internationals who could be swapping clubs during the January transfer window. There’s a whole group of players on the fringes of the France national squad who feel their career needs a reboot and could be hoping to move during the January window, as they look ahead to World Cup 2018.
L’Equipe say there’s a 95% chance of the player leaving, and seem to suggest his current Liverpool situation is all because of the player’s ‘unjust’ punishment from UEFA.
The problem for Sakho is finding a club.
Given he’s known for so long that Klopp doesn’t want him at Liverpool, Sakho and his camp have been in the privileged position of being able to actively search for a new club, you’d think he’d have one by now.
On top of that, clubs around the world have been well aware that Sakho is available, so a deal just as the January window opened wouldn’t have been surprising. However, Sakho hasn’t been interested in the options presented to him so far.
