Peter Odenwingie "Work Permit Issue"

I believe the club have not gone public with this transfer as the deal is not completed because Peter is from Nigeria and will require a work permit to make the transfer complete and rubber stamped.

He's been in this country for quite a bit and had no problem with WBA? Probably international clearance because we're Welsh. I remember Swansea having the problem when they signed Edgar

He has to apply for new work permit, all players need this from particular countries when they move. He falls into this catorgory.

Only 1 more year and he gets British citizenship that's one Of the main reasons he wanted to stay in Britain rather than move abroad

Sure that I read on a Walesonline article about the signing that he had a permit in place from Monday.
