Ex-Liverpool striker Andy Carroll seals return to former club with late transfer

Former Liverpool and England striker Andy Carroll has finally found a new club having returned to former employers Reading as a free agent.

The 33-year-old forward previously represented the Championship side for the first-half of last season before departing for West Bromwich Albion. Carroll was only at The Hawthorns for six months, with his contract then expiring. He remained a free agent throughout the transfer window but has finally penned terms on a contract with Reading - his deal is set to run until January.
