Baggies seal Duke signing

West Brom have completed the capture of Nathan Ellington for £3 million.

West Brom have completed the capture of Nathan Ellington from Wigan Athletic for a fee of £3 million.

The 24-year-old striker, who passed a medical on Friday, has penned a four-year contract with The Baggies.

Ellington did not play in Wigan's 1-0 loss to Chelsea and could now make his West Brom debut against Portsmouth on Saturday.

The Bradford-born ace, who netted 59 goals in 134 league games during his time with The Latics, is Albion's fifth capture since the end of last season.

Bryan Robson now has a wealth of strikers at his disposal with Ellington joining the likes of Robert Earnshaw, Diomansy Kamara, Geoff Horsfield, Kevin Campbell and Kanu.
