Lokomotiv Moscow have confirmed they've rejected an offer from Birmingham City for Peter Odemwingie.
Nigeria international Odemwingie, who featured at this summer's World Cup, also appears to be a target and Lokomotiv claim to have rejected an offer from Birmingham.
The 28-year-old only has one year remaining on his contract in Russia but Lokomotiv are still understood to want a fee in the region of £8million for the former Lille player.
Lokomotiv president said in The Sun: "The offer of Birmingham of 2million seemed ridiculous to us."
