Odemwingie Fined N18 Million For His Latest Twitter Outburst by DTalented(m): 2:40pm On Mar 20, 2013
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.
