Andy Carroll is 'set to undergo a medical at West Brom and sign until the end of the season'

Andy Carroll is having a medical at West Brom this morning ahead of signing until the end of the season.

Thee 33-year old is a free agent after his contract ended at Reading earlier this month and he had discussed potential moves to Burnley and Bournemouth.

However, following the hamstring injury suffered by £7million new signing Daryl Dike, West Brom have moved to sign the former Liverpool striker on a short term deal.
