Carroll back on West Ham injured list

West Ham United's Andy Carroll has suffered a setback in his bid to return from a foot injury.

The 24-year old forward, who joined the Hammers permanently from Liverpool this summer, injured his foot on his return to first team training on Monday.

Carroll struggled for fitness during his loan spell with the East London club last season and will now head back to the medical room to nurse a new issue.

"West Ham United can confirm Andy Carroll suffered an injury to his right foot during his return to full training today," said a statement on West Ham's official website.

"Although it is in the same part of his foot as his previous injury, it is a new injury and therefore there will be no prognosis until he has seen a specialist."
