Liverpool make improved £35m bid for Andy Carroll
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 have made an improved £35 million bid for Newcastle United striker Andy Carroll, latest media reports revealed.
Liverpool’s initial bid of £25 million for the 22-year-old was outrightly rejected by Newcastle today, but with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786, Anfield officials reportedly have increased their
offer to £35 million.

offer.
