Hal Robson-Kanu chose West Brom over massive Chinese offer

Hal Robson-Kanu rejected a huge offer from China to sign with West Brom.

The Mirror says Robson-Kanu turned down a mega £100,000-a-week deal in China to sign for West Brom.

The Wales international striker, 27, received a fabulous tax-free offer from Sven Goran Eriksson's Chinese Super League club Shanghai SIPG.

Robson-Kanu was in-demand on a Bosman after starring for Wales at Euro 2016 with two goals as they reached the last four, including a stunner against Belgium.

But the ex-Reading forward snubbed the Far East riches as he wanted a move to the Premier League.
