West Ham have been fined 100,000 Swiss francs (£71,000) and reprimanded for playing striker Diafra Sakho in the FA Cup, after the club had said he was unavailable for Senegal's African Nations Cup campaign due to injury.

Fears that the Hammers would be kicked out of the FA Cup have proved unfounded as the world governing body imposed only a fine - though the player has also been reprimanded.

Sakho, an international teammate of Saints star Sadio Mane, scored the winner against Bristol City on January 25, two days before Senegal were eliminated from the tournament in Equatorial Guinea.

Mane and Sakho are due to face each other when West Ham visit St Mary's next Wednesday.
