A former Red signs in Ligue 2

English striker Andy Carroll has signed a two-year contract with Ligue 2 club Amiens.

At 34, Andy Caroll will discover a new championship: Ligue 2. Free after the termination of his contract by mutual agreement with Reading (League One), the English striker has signed up for Amiens for two seasons. .

A nice media stunt – and hopefully, also sporting – for the residents of the Unicorn stadium who managed to secure the services of the former Newcastle and Liverpool striker, the most expensive rookie in the history of the Reds (41 million euros) at the time of his transfer to the Mersey club in January 2011.
