West Brom have completed the signing of Wales international forward Hal Robson-Kanu.
The Premier League side, who currently sit tenth in the English top-flight standings following their goalless draw against newly promoted Middlesbrough at the weekend, have landed the winger on a free transfer after running down his contract at Championship outfit Reading last term.
The 27-year-old, who has agreed a three-year deal at the Hawthorns, scored five goals and provided seven assists in 35 appearances for the Royals in all competitions last season.
Robson-Kanu, who has 35 international caps to his name, starred for Wales at this summer’s 2016 European Championships in France as the Dragons reached the semi-finals of the major tournament – scoring against Slovakia in the group stages, before netting against Belgium in the quarter-finals.
The Welshman scored a total of 30 goals and provided 26 assists in 228 games for Reading after graduating through their youth system.
