Osaze Odemwingie seals £2.5million move to Cardiff from West Brom
Cardiff City to the rescue!
Controversial West Brom striker Osaze Odemwingie finally completes transfer to Cardiff
City. Cardiff City signed the Nigerian international for a reported £2.5m, Odemwingie
was in Cardiff on Monday undergoing a medical and has now put pen to paper on a
three-year contract.
Unlike like what happened in January
with QPR, Odemwingie's agent Rob Segal arrived in Cardiff to discuss personal
teams as the player secured a transfer on deadline day
Although it seemed as if they
striker’s career was going down, other teams showed some interest in the
player. Cardiff boss Mark Hughes secured the striker's signature from the hands
of a host of competitors. 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.
The Nigerian becomes Mackay's
eighth summer signing following the captures of Gary Medel, Steven Caulker,
Andrea Cornelius, John Brayford, Simon Moore, Kevin Theophile-Catherine and
Uruguay youngster Maximiliano Amondarain.
Although his now former side was
quick to tag him an “outcast” during his time there, Odemwingie played front or
out wide and boasts a superb record of one goal in every three matches for West
Brom.
