Newcastle reject Liverpool’s Carroll bid
Newcastle United have rejected Liverpool’s 30 million pound bid for star striker Andy Carroll. The Reds consider Carroll to be a viable option up front should http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786.
Andy Carroll has been a revelation for Newcastle this season, scoring 11 goals in all competitions for the Magpies so far. Carroll’s ability has attracted a lot of attention from the biggest clubs in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749, and the Magpies knew that
Carroll would be a target for many during the January transfer window.
Manager Alan Pardew was keen to stress early on that the player was not for sale. However, that has not stopped Liverpool from making a move for the striker. The Reds have offered Newcastle 30 million pounds for Carroll’s services, a
bid which the Magpies have been quick to reject.
It seems that Pardew is serious in his bid to retain Newcastle’s most promising young talent. The club has made it clear that they have no intention of selling Andy Carroll, regardless of how much money is placed on the table.
However, with Newcastle’s financial difficulties, the club might just be forced to let go of the striker should http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 increase their bid. Carroll has been with the Magpies for the entirety of his career, working his way up through
the club’s youth academy. Thirty million pounds for the home-grown talent would be a great deal for the Magpies, who find themselves with some real money problems nowadays.
However, the club is in a healthy position in the league at the moment, but it is still far from certain whether or not they can avoid relegation this season. Carroll’s goals have so far been instrumental to their success this term.
Will the Magpies be able to retain their place in the table if they sell their star striker?
Carroll is currently out of action due to a muscle injury, but he will return to action in a few weeks. Let’s see whether or not Liverpool are successful in their pursuit of the striker. We will find out more before the transfer window closes in a few hours.
