Shanghai Shenhua coach Sergio Batista has played down talk of Nicolas Anelka and Didier Drogba leaving the Chinese club.
The former Chelsea duo were recently thought to have entered a dispute with the Shanghai board over pay.
However, Batista has indicated that they are in his plans ahead of Saturday's home match against Liaoning Whowin.
"Nicolas will start. As for the other two, Didier and Giovanni [Moreno], I have not seen them," he said. "I guess that means the problem has basically been resolved.
"When they arrive, I will communicate with them and see what their condition is, and decide whether they will take the field."
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger told reporters on Thursday that he had no desire to offer Drogba a route back to the Premier League.
