West Ham striker Diafra Sakho has reportedly been arrested again on making 'threats to kill'.

Earlier this month, the Senegal international was arrested after allegedly attacking his girlfriend.

According to the Guardian, a Metropolitan Police spokesman said that a man was arrested at an address in Emerson Park, Hornchurch on suspicion of threats to kill and witness intimidation.

He added that the 25-year-old was later taken to the east London Police station, where he bailed pending police enquiries to a date in early October.

Meanwhile, Sakho's spokesperson said that the player has not been charged with any offence, adding that the striker has vigorously denied all the allegations against him.

Sakho has scored 10 goals in his 26 Premier League appearances for West Ham.
