West Brom manager Steve Clarke has revealed that despite Peter Odemwingie's disappointment of missing the 2013 African Cup of Nations, he is happy to remain with The Baggies.
''Peter made himself available for Nigeria and they chose not to pick him. He is obviously slightly disappointed that they have made that choice but he is delighted that he can stay and help us.
"I spoke to him and it is the choice of the Nigerian coach and he respects that choice. But he looks forward to helping us get a few more points instead of going away,'' Clarke was quoted as saying by sportsmole.co.uk.
31 - year - old Odemwingie has scored 4 goals in 15 appearances in the English Premier League.
