Rotherham United sign footballer Peter Odemwingie on a short term deal

Rotherham United have signed unattached former West Bromwich Albion and Stoke City striker, Peter Odemwingie on a short-term deal until January 2017. After securing the deal, the Nigeria international footballer said:

"It went quickly. Only a few days ago I got in touch with the manager Kenny Jackett. Knowing him, he is a manager that believes in you and that gives me a lot of positivity. 

He obviously believes in me and thinks I can do a job for him, so I am looking forward to a new start and doing my best for the team." "I am looking forward to this," he added. "I love pressure as a player, I love situations like this, and a lot of times I have delivered, I hope it will be the same in this club. I want to play out of my skin because there is a level that I want to get back to and the only way to get back to that is to do my best and work really hard. It has been a while but I have tried to stay fit and keep on top of things. I have had a few training sessions in the last few days and I feel ready to go, I don't think it will take me long to get back to my best."
