Liverpool want Carrol for £35MILLION!!

Newcastle striker Andy Carroll is keen on a proposed move to Liverpool, BBC Sport understands.

Liverpool have made a second bid for the 22-year-old after their initial £30m offer was rejected by the Magpies.

Carroll has scored 11 goals in 19 league games this season and made his full England debut in November's 2-1 defeat by France at Wembley.

Liverpool have agreed a £23m fee for Ajax striker Luis Suarez but could be set to sell Fernando Torres to Chelsea.

Newcastle manager Alan Pardew was due to hold his pre-match press conference ahead of Wednesday's Premier League trip to Fulham at the club's training headquarters at 1400 GMT.

However, it was initially put back to 1530 GMT at St James' Park before being cancelled.

Academy graduate Carroll played a key role in the Magpies' promotion from the Championship last season and has continued to shine since being handed the number nine shirt during the summer.

I think he is a good player but £35million+ that is a massive waste of money!!!

I think it is a huge amount for him . He should join Liver pool because this is wonderful team . While earning huge amount he will also improve his game . But I would say that the deal is in favor of Carrol . What a huge amount of £35Million .
