Liverpool ramp up their bid for Andy Carroll
Liverpool have increased their bid for Newcastle striker Andy Carroll to a whopping 35 million pounds. The Reds are looking to finalise the deal for the player before the transfer window closes in a few hours time.
Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish is looking for a proven striker to replace Fernando Torres, who is almost surely headed to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 soon. The Spaniard is set for a move to Stamford Bridge after the English champions offered a staggering 50 million pounds
for his services.
Dalglish needs a replacement for Torres soon, and he sees Andy Carroll as the perfect person to fill the void left by the departure of the World Cup winner. Carroll has scored 11 goals for Newcastle in all competitions so far, proving that he has the golden
touch in front of goal.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 international has been instrumental to Newcastle’s success this season, and his performances for the Magpies have been attracting a lot of attention from all around the Premier League.
Newcastle manager Alan Pardew had earlier stated that he has no intention of selling his star striker, no matter how much money Liverpool offer. However, it seems that he will have to reconsider his stance.
The Magpies find themselves in a difficult financial situation, and it looks like they will have to cash in on their prized asset. Thirty-five million pounds for the home-grown talent is a deal that might prove to be too good for the Magpies to turn down.
Should http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fernando-Torres-c13707’ departure. The Reds have already signed Luis Suarez from Ajax, and Carroll’s arrival at Anfield should give them more than enough firepower
up front.
Both parties have very little time to seal the deal though. The transfer window will close in just a few hours, and Liverpool will need to hurry if they want to bring Carroll to Anfield.
