BAGGIES SNAP UP KAMARA
West Bromwich Albion have completed the signing of former Portsmouth striker Diomansy Kamara from Italian club Modena in a £1.5million deal.
The Senegal international has put pen to paper on a three-year contract which also has a further year’s option in the club's favour.
Kamara, who completed the move after passing a medical, has become Albion’s fourth signing of the summer after Darren Carter, Steve Watson and Chris Kirkland.
The 24-year-old signed for Portsmouth for £2.25million last summer but the south coast club invoked an escape clause in the contract which meant they recouped £1.5million of their outlay and the player returned to Modena.
He has made six appearances for his country and helped them reach the quarter-finals of the 2004 African Nations Cup.
Albion manager Bryan Robson said: “One of the big reasons we have brought Diomansy onboard is because he is very versatile.
“He can play in three different positions - wide left, wide right or through the middle as a centre-forward.
“He has got loads of pace and, on the occasions I saw him play for Portsmouth last season, I thought he looked a real threat.
“The sheer pace he has got makes him very dangerous and we're delighted we've snapped him up.”
French-born Kamara scored 11 goals in Serie A during two seasons for Modena after helping them to gain promotion three years ago. |
