Former England international striker Andy Carroll has agreed a deal to re-join Championship side Reading, despite attracting interest from around the world.
The 33-year-old striker has been without a club since his seven-month stay at West Brom came to an end in the summer.
Carroll had a stint with the Royals in the first half of last season in which he netted twice in eight appearances for the club.
During the spell he also scored two brilliant goals against Fulham, only to see them both ruled offside.
Now he will return to Reading after being heavily linked with numerous clubs across the summer including Wolves and Iranian side Tractor SC.
