West Ham United could turn their attention to Inter Milan's Ishak Belfodil as they continue their search for a striker.
The Hammers have struggled for goals this season due to the absence of record signing Andy Carroll due to injury.
Allardyce has stated he will look to boost his attacking options in the January transfer window and Gazzetta dello Sport claim Belfodil is on the Irons' radar.
The 21-year-old Algerian international joined Inter from Parma last summer but has only made one league start for the club.
