Andy Carroll is yet to turn out for West Ham United this season as the centre-forward continues his recovery from ankle surgery.

Carroll has only made 34 Premier League appearances over the last two seasons due to injury, and is not yet ready to return to action.

The 29-year-old will actually see his contract with West Ham expire at the end of the current campaign, and his future is far from secure.

Carroll's record at West Ham is actually not too bad, managing 33 goals in 128 appearances. It is not the best, but he has had some excellent moments for the club.

The Englishman - a 2013 arrival from Liverpool - has had his fair share of injury troubles, however, and it remains to be seen whether West Ham decide to exercise a two-year option on his current deal.

It would mean that the powerful striker would continue on his massive wages, and the West Ham fans are not all that keen when considering that Declan Rice is currently struggling to agree a new deal with the club.
