Dubai club Al Nasr have reportedly made an improved bid for West Bromwich Albion striker Peter Odemwingie.
The Nigerian forward’s future at the Hawthorns looks bleak after he failed to engineer a move to Queens Park Rangers during the January transfer window.
Al Nasr have already had an offer of £850,000 for the 32-year-old turned down and reports now claim the Dubai-based outfit have increased their bid to £1.5 million.
West Brom are willing to sell Odemwingie but value the frontman at £2 million and are not ready to lower their asking price for his services.
Crystal Palace and Cardiff City have expressed an interest in his signature and it is thought that Odemwingie would prefer a move to a Premier League club.

Peter Odemwingie rules out move from West Brom to Al Nasr
West Bromwich Albion striker Peter Odemwingie has ruled out a move abroad and is ready to stay at The Hawthorns if he cannot seal a Premier League move.
Albion have rejected three bids from the Premier League and the Nigeria international will resist any transfer out of the top flight despite continued interest from Dubai-based club Al Nasr.
He is ready to leave the Baggies but the Hawthorns hierarchy have turned down three bids of around £1.5m plus add-ons from English top-flight clubs including West Ham and Fulham.
Al Nasr have revived their interest in the 32-year-old and held fresh talks with the Baggies in recent days, although reports of an increased bid of £1.5m from the Middle East outfit are premature. They previously had an £850,000 offer rejected out of hand.
However, Odemwingie will fight any attempt by the Baggies to offload him to a foreign club or a Championship side and is intent on staying in the English top flight.
That leaves Baggies bosses with four weeks to agree a deal with a Premier League club before the transfer window closes or be left with the prospect of the forward – who has been frozen out of the first team picture since the start of pre-season – remaining on their wage bill.
Odemwingie has been in open dispute with the Baggies since submitting a transfer request in January.
