Bordeaux FC Pursues Andy Carroll

Bordeaux FC is nearing a deal for former Liverpool and Newcastle striker Andy Carroll, who is looking to revive his career in France’s Championnat National 2. The 35-year-old, currently at Ligue 2 side Amiens, has not finalized the move, but Bordeaux is optimistic about the signing.

Carroll's Journey in Football

After joining Amiens last summer, Carroll made 31 appearances and scored four goals for the team. Previously, he made a significant impact in the English leagues, becoming Liverpool's record signing in January 2011.

  • Carroll scored 54 goals in 248 top-flight matches.
  • He was capped nine times for England, scoring twice.
  • Bordeaux, historically a strong team, has fallen on hard times, facing financial issues leading to relegation.

Rebuilding Bordeaux FC

Bordeaux are working on revamping their squad after not being able to secure financial guarantees. With the assistance of Amiens sporting director John Williams, they hope to strengthen their lineup and look forward to the upcoming season.
