This is the same Anelka whose outburst at Raymond Domenech ("Go f**k yourself, you son of a wh*re", he allegedly said) instigated France's mutiny at the 2010 World Cup. What could possibly go wrong?
He will aid fellow compatriot and ex-Fulham boss Jean Tigana, whose Shenhua side have won just one of their opening five games in the Chinese Super League; leading to speculation Tigana may be sacked.
An Anelka smile is as rare as a day without Mario Balotelli in the headlines. He played for Arsenal, Liverpool Manchester City, Bolton and Chelsea in England, and has amassed £85.8m in transfer fees.
His latest career path is undoubtedly the most bizarre however.
