Cardiff City have completed a £2.5 million deal for West Brom winger, Osaze Peter Odemwingie.
Odemwingie was in Cardiff on Monday undergoing a medical and has now put pen to paper on a three-year contract.
Cardiff beat Swansea City and Stoke City to the 32-year-old’s signature, with Michael Laudrup instead opting to bring in Alvaro Vazquez on loan from Getafe.
Cardiff’s latest signing can play upfront or outwide and boasts a superb record of one goal in every three matches for West Brom.
Odemwingie hit the headlines in January after famously driving to QPR’s Loftus Road ground on deadline day to close the deal.
That move fell apart as West Brom refused to accept the bid and Odemwingie was subsequently fined £75,000. He has pretty much been out in the cold at The Hawthorns since then.
