Peter Odemwingie, Nigeria striker could be fined £70,000 for slamming West Brom. Odemwingie is angry that his transfer request was turned down by Albion, which he view as a lack of respect. The striker has been a subject of transfer speculation to QPR in the winter transfer window but now faces a fine of two weeks’ wages for breaching the rules of granting unauthorised interview, according to The Sun in the UK.
The 31-year-old has voiced his displeasure at Barclays English Premier League club, West Bromwich Albion for their perceived refusal to let him join Queens Park Rangers.
Odemwingie has now released a lengthy statement pleading with the club to accept his transfer request which was rejected a few days ago.
” (This represents) a new challenge, a new opportunity, and a chance to play under the stewardship of one of the most respected managers in the game.
“At this stage of my career, this (QPR) opportunity may not come around again.
“I’m deeply hurt and in some ways offended by the lack of reciprocal common respect from the management of West Bromwich Albion.
“I am crazy haha adviser text saying don’t tweet, it weakens our position. Doesn’t weaken nothing! When I want to do something, I do it,” he tweeted.
