West Ham are willing to sacrifice Craig Bellamy when the transfer window
opens next month - to give Gianfranco Zola the funds to lead the Hammers
clear of the relegation dogfight. Injury-prone Bellamy has netted just five
times in 17 starts since his £8m signing from Liverpool in 2007. That has
not impressed the Upton Park top brass, who feel the fiery Welshman does not
score enough goals to justify his £60,000-a-week wages - and that selling
him makes more strategic sense than losing either of the club's other two
prime assets, Robert Green or Matthew Upson. Zola knows Nigel Quashie and
Calum Davenport won't bring in top money. So Bellamy is set to be the
big-name departure if a buyer is willing to pay around £6m.
