English Premier League club, West Browmwich Albion have slapped a £2 million (about N493 million) transfer tag on Nigerian striker, Peter Odemwingie.
The forward has endured a difficult last seven months since unsuccessfully trying to force a transfer to Queens Park Rangers in January.
He had been fined, made to use a different dressing room from the rest of the squad, left out from the club’s pre-season tour and compelled to train with the club’s youth team.
Another Premier League club, Crystal Palace have shown strong interest in Odemwingie but the latest bid for the 32-year-old’s services came from Dubai-based club, Al Nasr.
Al Nasr tabled an £850,000 (about N210 million) bid for the attacker but West Brom are holding out for £2 million.
With the forward spending more time away from football at the highest level, he took to Twitter to reveal his new passion – Golf.
“I think I need some antiGolf tablets cos the desire to play is getting too much hahaha greetings to everyone ! Brum still hot like in Hawaii,” he tweeted via @OdemwingieP.
Odemwingie joined the Baggies in 2010 but it seems he has finally reached the end of the road at the Hawthorns.
