Andy Carroll has explained in the latest episode of Mail Sport’s Croqued Monsieurs that he is considering cutting his hair for charity.
The forward spoke to Nik Simon in France ahead of the Rugby World Cup semi-finals and revealed that he grew his hair out because Joey Barton told him he would pay him £200 to grow it long, but he never did that.
It’s been a long time and November 14 is World Diabetes Day. Carroll’s son suffers from the disease, so he is considering cutting his locks to raise awareness about diabetes.
Now based in France, Carroll plays for Amiens in Ligue 2 north of Paris, where England will face South Africa in the semi-final on Saturday.
Carroll did not like rugby and was given a rugby ball as a gift by Simon, promising to investigate the rules in response. “It feels weird,” Carroll said before explaining that he had never really thought about playing rugby and doing a few kick-ups with the ball.
