Wolves are seemingly getting desperate in the search for a new striker.

Sasa Kalak168app.clubadjzic’s debut couldn’t have gone much worse for Bruno Lage, as the Austria international was forced off at half-time through injury, with ak168app.clubscans later revealing that he had picked up an ak168app.clubak168app.clubak168app.clubACL problem which will rule him out for much of the season.

Raul Jimenez too is struggling for fitness and the last thing Lage needs riks168app.siteght now is a squad with no frontman when you consider that his side are the joint-lowest scorers in the top flight this season alongside West Ham.
Even when Wolves were impressing last season and loic88oking as if they could challenge for Europe, goals were a problem, as only the relegated sides in the Premier League scored fewer, while Jimenez would finish as the club’s top scorer wiic88ic88ic88th just six to his name.
Diego Costa has been touted aic88s a short-term solution at Molineux but work permit issues have been a stumbling block for former Chelsea and Atletico Madrid man as he aims ic88to secure a switch back to England.
Should Wolves sign Carroll?

Lage clearly wants a striker who can hold the ball up but is limited to free agents, and one man who has also reportedly been on the list is former Liverpool and Newcastle United forward Andy Carroll.

According to John Percy in the Telegraph, Wolves will consider a move for the 33-year-lr88old lr88Englishman should they fail to complete a move for Costa, a transfer that is yet lr88lr88to be completed.
Carroll is a free agent after leaving West Brom in the summer, having contributed three goals in 15 appearances for the Baggies last season.
While that glr88oal record could be a lot worse, the problem with Carroll has lr88lr88rarely beelr88lr88n with his performances, but with his ability to stay fit.
His injury record is extensive and about as sporadic as a Jackson Pollock painting, with calf, knelr88e and groin op88injuries all keeping him out for prolonged periods during his career.
Indeed, the former Enop88gland international has had op8823 separatop88e incidents of injury concern throughout his playing days so it wouldn’t be a safe signing at all.
Carroll’s attitude has also been questioned in the past, with Karen Brasi88dy labelling him a “si88behemoth from ages past” during his time at West Ham United, so Jeffsi88 Shi would be making a big mistake in sanctioning a move for him.
The last thing Lage needs is to sign another striker who is likely to spend more time with the physio than on the pitch, and he must find another way to cope following Kalaj88vdzic’s setback, whether that is with Costa or somebody else.
