Official: "Liverpool" buys Carroll for 41 million euros (VIDEO) © EuroFootball.com

On the last day of the transfer window, it was officially confirmed that the club acquired striker Andy Carroll for a record sum of 41 million euros.

This deal likely means that Liverpool is selling Fernando Torres to Chelsea for an even more impressive sum of 58 million euros, although this news has not yet been confirmed.

The 22-year-old Englishman hastily left for Liverpool, where he will undergo a medical examination and sign a contract. It is said that his salary will double to 93 thousand euros per week.

Carroll, considered one of the most promising strikers in the country, scored eleven goals in 18 matches in the Premier League this season.
