English Championship side Bristol City have hooked Peter Odemwingie on loan from Stoke City for the rest of the season.
The Nigerian striker has had to endure limited playing time at Stoke, where he has made just five Premier League appearances this term.
However, the Robins completed the signing of the experienced forward in time ahead of their trip to London where they will face Fulham in a Sky Bet Championship game this Saturday.
Bristol City manager Lee Johnson is "delighted" that his club have landed a "quality" player in the 34-year-old for the remainder of their campaign.
"I'm delighted we've been able to bring someone of Peter's quality in. He will provide us with experience and hopefully goals in one form or another.
"I'm looking forward to working with him and he'll be available for us at Fulham tomorrow," he said following the confirmation of the deal for Odemwingie.
Odemwingie will wear number 27 at Bristol City and his first task with his new club will be to help them stay in the English second tier as they sit two places and two points above the drop zone.
