# Carroll set to end injury nightmare and seal China move

West Ham striker Andy Carroll is set to call a time on his injury-ridden spell in London and move to China in a mega deal, according to [the Express](https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/729141/West-Ham-Andy-Carroll-Exclusive-China-Chinese-Super-League-Premier-League-Slaven-Bilic).

The report claims that Carroll is set to leave West Ham to move to China, with a £300k-per-week deal waiting for him abroad.

Beijing Guoan and Guangzhou R&F are the two Chinese sides said to be interested in signing him. They are both able to offer him £300k-per-week, which would make him one of the highest-paid footballers in the world.

He would become the third Premier League striker to switch to China in recent months. Graziano Pelle and Papiss Cisse both moved in the summer to sign lucrative contracts – after leaving Southampton and Newcastle respectively.

Carroll has played just four games for West Ham this season due to a persistent knee injury, which has prompted the club to consider cutting their losses.
