West Brom have signed Danish striker Kenneth Zohore from Cardiff City for an undisclosed fee.

The 25-year-old, who scored one goal in 20 Premier League games last season, has signed a four-year contract after flying in from Cardiff's pre-season training trip in America.

Albion head coach Slaven Bilic was in the market for striker to fill the hole left by Salomon Rondon's transfer to Chinese club Dalian Yifang.

Rondon, who had a £16.5m release clause in his West Brom contract, left Albion on Friday to link up with former Newcastle boss Rafa Benitez in China.

Bilic said: "He is a player who has got more than a bit of everything, he's strong, he has pace, he has good skill.

"He knows the league, he knows the country, he's already got good experience but he's still got room to improve. He's not the finished article.
