West Ham United have made a cheeky bid for Liverpool’s Andy Carroll. They’ve offered to take Andy Carroll on loan for a fee of £2m, with a further £16m added if they avoid relegation. It’s a shame that the deal probably won’t go through because Andy Carroll would be a great fit for the Hammers, who prefer to play a more physical and direct approach than Liverpool.
In other news, Fulham has received planning permission to increase the capacity of its Craven Cottage ground to 30,000. The main change will be adding a new tier to the Riverside Stand.
