Newcastle to re-sign Andy Carroll?

Newcastle manager Alan Pardew is to be offered the chance to sign Andy Carroll from West Ham. The striker has struggled with poor form and injuries at Upton Park.

Carroll, a former fan favourite at St James' Park before making a move to Liverpool, has been sidelined through injury and has apparently told his agent that he wants a return to his former club. There are reports that West Ham will accept as little as 6 million pounds for the England international. Newcastle are hoping to sign a striker as top priority during the upcoming transfer window.
