Chelsea Transfer news : Carlo Ancelloti wants Andy Carroll
The current champions of the Premier League Chelsea are supposedly making a surprise move for Newcastle United striker Andry Carroll, if you ask me, it’s not really a surprise that’s been kept well is it if everyone knows about it?
BBC Sports leaked the story and a lot of other sites seem to be covering it to, so why is it a surprise move?
Well, the first thing to come to the mind of many is the thought of Chelsea, a team which has no shortages in finances thanks to Roman Abramovich. Why would Chelsea target Caroll when they clearly have the funds to bring the current stars of this generation such as Fernando Torres or Cristiano Ronaldo to Stamford Bridge.
It has been said that Chelsea are prepared to pay £7 million for the 21 years old, maybe manager Carlo Ancelloti see’s a potential future for the youngster who scored 19 goals in 35 games for Newcastle United last season.
Newcastle have had a rock and rolling experience since being relegated into the Championship, but this season they ensured that there return to top flight football after finishing first claiming 102 points from 46 games, 11 points clear of runner-up West Bromwich Albion.
The 21 year old youngster is also an England Under-21 international, with both Didier Drogba and Anelka over 30 years of age, will this combination do justice? Or is it a long term plan?
