Rodger that: Liverpool to risk keeping Carroll

Andy Carroll's future at Liverpool seems increasingly uncertain after a loan move from Newcastle was turned down.

Newcastle offered to pay part of striker Carroll's £80,000-a-week wages, with a view to a permanent deal at a specified price next summer, according to the BBC.

But the terms fall some way short of Liverpool's expectations.

The Anfield club rejected the initial offer on Sunday night and Liverpool's preference is a sale, rather than to loan out the 23-year-old, it said.
 
While that was flatly turned down, it is understood the Merseysiders would entertain offers for a permanent transfer of their £35 million British record signing.
 
New Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers admitted this week that he would consider sending Carroll out on loan this season.
 
While Liverpool were not commenting on the matter it is now understood the club would only sell Carroll, rather than entertaining thoughts of a loan move.
 
The 23-year-old arrived at Liverpool for a club-record fee from Newcastle 18 months ago but failed to live up to his price tag under Kenny Dalglish.
 
The arrival of Rodgers has seemingly pushed him closer towards the Anfield exit door with his former club on Sunday making a sensational attempt to bring him back to St James' Park.
