The ex-Newcastle, West Ham and Everton boss is eager to find a way back after a lengthy absence, though he distanced himself from a return to one former team, League One promotion hopefuls Bolton.
AFPWHAT NEXT?
Allardyce is taking part in the nationwide Sky Bet and British Heart Foundation's Every Minute Matters Relay to inspire the public to learn CPR. The event sees participants walk, cycle or run each leg. Allardyce will walk 13km from Bolton to Wigan.
"I have had three stents fitted in my lifetime and fortunately I have not been a casualty of cardiac arrest because I managed to get myself sorted out before it escalated to that level," he told The Mirror. "I’m the sort of person who prefers an ounce of prevention to a pound of cure, and I get myself checked up. At the first sign of a problem, I’m straight on to the doctor. This campaign is about making people aware of heart disease and how we can save lives."
