Reports in Russia suggest the fee is about £2.5million. Odemwingie, who has dual Russian and Nigerian citizenship, has spent the last four seasons with Lokomotiv, scoring 21 goals in 70 starts. Baggies boss Roberto di Matteo said: 'I'm delighted to welcome Peter to the club. He is an exciting international, has a great CV and I'm sure seeing a player of his calibre coming into the club will give everyone a lift. What's going on out there: Roberto Di Matteo watched Chelsea thrash his West Brom side last weekend 'Peter has got great pace, is two-footed, scores goals and has good experience at a very high level. We've brought him in as a striker but he can also play out wide, which gives me options.' Odemwingie is Di Matteo's sixth permanent signing of the summer, following Steven Reid, Gabriel Tamas, Pablo Ibanez, Boaz Myhill and Nicky Shorey to The Hawthorns.  The Firing Line: Robert Martinez tops the charts after Wigan woeIt's still not too late!
