Andy Carroll to join Liverpool as Newcastle accept £35m offer
Andy Carroll is poised to sign for Liverpool from Newcastle United in a club record transfer fee worth at least £35 million.
Carroll is currently heading to Liverpool for a medical check-up and to discuss personal terms after Newcastle owner Mike Ashley 'reluctantly' accepted the Anfield bid.
A brief statement on the club's website read: "Liverpool FC confirmed this afternoon that Newcastle United had accepted a club record offer for the transfer of Andy Carroll.
"The club have been given permission by Newcastle to discuss personal terms with the player, who will now travel to Liverpool for a medical."
Liverpool had an offer of £25 million rejected earlier today and were told that they would have to pay a further £10 million to land the forward.
The club?s owners, Fenway Sports Group, have surprised even their own fans with their spending so far this transfer window, with the Carroll deal following the arrival of Luis Suarez from Ajax.
A deal will only go through, though, should Chelsea sign Torres which is expected before the 11pm deadline. The Spanish international left Melwood, Liverpool?s training base, at lunchtime, and Telegraph Sport understands he is travelling down to London where he will be checked over by Chelsea's doctors. Personal terms are still to be agreed, although these are not expected to be a problematic.
Liverpool have finally accepted Chelsea's bid of £45m plus add-ons for the Spaniard, in a move which will smash the British transfer record.
