West Brom striker, Peter Odemwingie, has stated his intentions to stay on with the Baggies, and unveiled exactly why contract negotiations are taking so long.
The Nigerian international has a year left to run on his current contract at the Hawthorns, after scoring 15 goals in his debut season last term.
The 30 year-old has been linked with a move away from the club, with Albion already rejecting a £4m offer from Wigan Athletic.
Despite voicing his commitment to the club, Odemwingie has openly stated that if a top six club came seeking his services, he would have to consider a transfer.
The forward wrote on his Twitter page: “To my dear WBA supporters . I love this club and will leave only to a TOP team which is understandable. Nothing abnormal is going.”
He went on to say: “Contract is not signed (sic) cos of the duration of it. Figures agreed long time ago cos I know this is not Real Madrid Please be patient.”
