Allardyce speaks about failed Diarra transfer

 

It seemed as if Lassana Diarra was going to join West Ham. Unfortunately for the London side, completing the paperwork has become too much of an issue and there are other problems occurring that are making the deal impossible to complete.  West Ham’s boss Sam Allardyce spoke to the Daily Mirror about the failed transfer:

‘I have to say we have waited and we have negotiated for weeks to get the right deal and now we’ve got it, we find we can’t get the right paperwork and the right clearance.  We have wasted his time and our time.”
