West Ham to send Carroll to the USA in a bid to cure heel injury
Posted Monday, September 16, 2013 by YAHOO Sport
West Ham will fly Andy Carroll to USA in a bid to cure his long-standing heel injury, but the club remains confident that its record purchase will play a significant role this season.
The team has confirmed that the 15 million pound signing from Liverpool has suffered an injury to his plantar fascia (heel area) and has so far received two specialists' reports confirming the problem.
Sources close to the club told Goal that suggestions the England striker may miss the entire season "could not be more wrong" and will now fly the 24-year-old to the States to see a top specialist for a consultation and treatment.
