Frederic Piquionne: Fallen down pecking order at Upton Park

Agent Willie McKay has confirmed Doncaster are in talks with West Ham over a loan move for striker Frederic Piquionne.

McKay has overseen a number of high-profile signings at the Keepmoat Stadium in recent months, including El-Hadji Diouf, Pascal Chimbonda and Habib Beye, and is now addressing boss Dean Saunders' calls for a new forward after top scorer Billy Sharp completed his move to Southampton during the January transfer window.

Piquionne has fallen down the pecking order at Upton Park following the arrivals of Nicky Maynard and Ricardo Vaz Te last month and a possible move to Doncaster could become reality when the emergency loan window opens on Wednesday.

"We are talking to West Ham about taking Piquionne on loan," McKay told Skysports.com.

"He is a player I know a lot about having followed him when he was in France with St Etienne, Monaco and Lyon before coming to Portsmouth and then West Ham.

"Dean is keen to get a new striker in and hopefully we can do a deal for Piquionne."

xcellent decision, probably one of VERY few footballers who will be remembered as leaving the club after scoring the champions league winning goal with his very last kick! Not many get that tag in football!

his is for the best, his hunger would be in serious question now after winning everything with us. A true Chelsea legend, up there with Osgood and Zola, come back and see us now and then Didier. And as Martin Tyler said on Saturday night....he is immortal at Chelsea. What a way to go out eh....Good luck big man wherever you land next.

ne of the many delights of the final few seconds of the season was seeing little Mike Owen with his trackie off and full replica kit on, getting ready to celebrate having contributed NOTHING all season. Would have been on a par with Terry's carry-on in Munich.
