West Ham United striker Andy Carroll is reportedly seeking a new agent.

The Telegraph says it has emerged the 26-year-old has split from his agent Mark Curtis over a dispute between the pair.

Curtis took over Carroll's affairs around the time the player signed for Liverpool in January 2011 for £35m and negotiated his club record £15m switch to West Ham two years ago.

Carroll is now understood to be looking for a new representative, even though he still has four years to run on his £90,000-a-week West Ham contract.
