Queens Park Rangers boss Harry Redknapp has confirmed that he is interested in bringing Nicolas Anelka back to the Premier League.
The 33-year-old striker left Chelsea to join Chinese side Shanghai Shenhua last year.
However, it now seems that the Frenchman's time in China is coming to an end following a dispute over wages and Redknapp has admitted that he would like to bring him to Loftus Road.
"He is a player that is of interest to anybody," said Redknapp. "I think he is finishing in China so he is available.
"It is what you can do, whether you can afford these players, what they are looking for, whether they are reasonable, whether you can deal with them and most importantly whether you think they can do the job you want.
"He is a top player so he is a player we would be interested in, but whether we could afford to get anywhere near I him I am not sure."
West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce is also thought to be considering a move for Anelka, with whom he worked in his time at Bolton Wanderers.
