The Nigerian international has now been fined
over £170,000 for various outbursts on a social media site
Nigerian striker, Peter Odemwingie has been
punished with another fine for his latest Twitter where he insinuated that West
Brom are trying to ruin his career.
The latest outburst could have gotten
Odemwingie sacked but the club will not be going that way though it is now
almost sure that he will be sold in the summer with one year left on his
contract.
He said on Twitter: “If they like they
shouldn’t even give me 10 mins to play. Threatening to ruin my career? Career I
closed already last summer? No harm to me.
“Want to treat me like an average player. The
abuse and praise I get is it average? So get some extra from me too.”
The 31-year-old had ridden to Queens Park
Rangers during January's transfer deadline to push through a transfer but he
was snubbed at the gate and fined £75,000 for a Twitter outburst afterwards.
West Brom issued a statement which read: “The
club is aware of comments made by Peter Odemwingie which will be dealt with
internally.”
He has also been involved in a fierce clash
with Steven Reid in the medical room at the club’s training ground.
Odemwingie was signed for £2 million from
Lokomotiv Moscow in August 2010 and has played just 22 times in the league this
season with five goals. Though he scored 10 and 15 goals in the last two
seasons to emerge as the Baggies’ highest goals scorer.
