Rosenberg seals Albion move

Baggies see off competition from clubs across Europe and in China to sign striker

ALBION have won the race to sign Sweden international Markus Rosenberg.

The 29-year-old striker, who boasts an impressive goalscoring record in Germany, Spain and Holland, has penned a three-year deal after passing a Hawthorns medical. He will wear the No.8 shirt.

The deal for Rosenberg, who was out of contract after leaving Werder Bremen in May, remains subject to international clearance.

The former Ajax forward again hit double figures in the Bundesliga last season and was being tracked by clubs across Europe and in China.

Rosenberg, who has also found the net in the Champions League, UEFA Cup and Europa League, becomes Albion’s fourth summer signing, following Ben Foster, Yassine El Ghannasy and Claudio Yacob through the door.

Head coach Steve Clarke said: “I’m delighted to welcome Markus to the club.

“He is an experienced striker who has scored goals in three of Europe’s top leagues, as well as in the top European competitions, and is determined to prove himself in the Barclays Premier League.

“Markus will really increase competition for places in the forward areas and hopefully spur on the strikers we already have here.

“He had several other offers this summer but he made it clear that joining West Bromwich Albion was his first choice and we’re really pleased we’ve been able to conclude a deal.”

Rosenberg, who won't be considered for tonight's friendly at Walsall (ko 7.45pm), joined new Hawthorns team-mate and friend Jonas Olsson in Sweden’s Euro 2012 squad, playing against Ukraine and England during this summer’s tournament.

Sporting & technical director, Dan Ashworth, added: “We’ve been keeping tabs on Markus for two or three years now and getting a player of his calibre is a real coup for this club.

“He had offers from Spain, Germany, Turkey, Russia and China and we’re delighted he has chosen this club as the next step in his career.

“Markus is quick, has a great work ethic and can play in a couple of different positions.

“He’s scored goals wherever he’s played and gives us a different option to what we’ve already got.”

Rosenberg started his career at hometown club Malmo, where he progressed through the youth ranks.
