Andy Carroll has reportedly told West Ham United he wants a £100,000-a-week contract if he moves to Upton Park from Liverpool.

The Hammers are believed to have agreed a £15.5 million deal with the Reds for the striker but the club have been waiting for Carroll to make a decision for three weeks.

According to the Metro, West Ham paid Carroll £80,000-a-week during his loan spell last season but the England international has requested an increase to make his move permanent.
