West Ham bracing for fresh China bids for Carroll

Andy Carroll is likely to be the subject of new offers from Chinese Super League clubs this summer.

The Daily Mirror is reporting that West Ham United are expecting to receive bids from clubs in China who failed with their pursuit in January.

It is understood that Tianjin Quanjian, Hebei China Fortune and Shandong Luneng were all prepared to pay around £32million for Carroll in the winter transfer window.

The Hammers were not interested in losing Carroll midway through the season but may look to offload the 28-year-old in the summer for a hefty transfer fee and to get his £100,000-a-week wages off their books.
