Will Caroll return to Newcastle?

0

Andy Caroll came at Liverpool last year in a deal that makes him the most expensive British player.

The 23 years old forward was supposed to make the difference at Liverpool but unfortunately wasn’t the case. Caroll came as a replacement for Torres who left for Chelsea.

Caroll was injured when he came from Newcastle and everybody expected his debut at Anfield. He failed to impose into the starting line even if Dalglish had fate in him and put him in different formations. Caroll made only 31 appearances and scored only 6 goals for Liverpool.

Now Newcastle want him back but at a smaller price. Also Liverpool might accept a bid of around £25 millions as they would lose around £10 millions.

It remains to see if Newcastle will meet Liverpool asking price and if the player will accept to return to his former club.

Unfortunately for him he never adapted to London life and after only two years he was loaned at Real Madrid where he spent one season.

In 2007 Atletico Madrid bought him from Arsenal where he played until now with one year exception when he was loaned at Benfica.

He never hide his wish to return to his favorite team and now finally this happened. Reyes will sign a contract of three and a half years with Sevilla. The transfer sum is not known yet.

Manchester City are determined to broke the deal with Tevez definitely. Even if Man City are open to discussions with any club there are only a few teams that could meet the player wage demands.

AC Milan are the favorites to land the Argentinean striker but the negotiations are not still finished between the clubs.

Milan would prefer to loan Tevez until the summer and to have the possibility to make the deal permanent only if they will consider that the deal must be done. Meanwhile Man City would allow a loan deal only if Milan would be obligated to buy the player at the end of the loan.

Both clubs have agreed that a new round of negotiations will be done after Christmas.

PSG and Corinthians are also interested in buying Tevez but probably both clubs will wait to see what will happen in Milan case.
