Sam Allardyce would be willing to work with Nicolas Anelka again after West Ham United were linked with a January move for the striker.
One stumbling block for a potential deal would come if Anelka refused to take a drop in his wages as he is currently reported to be earning around £250,000 a week in China. He has also been linked with a return to Liverpool or a move to fellow strugglers QPR but all three clubs would be hard pushed to fork out the sort of money he is currently bringing in from Shenhua.
