French striker Nicolas Anelka has signed a one-year deal with Premier League club West Bromwich Albion, the club said.

The club has an option to extend the contract for another year.

Anelka, 34, is going to play for his sixth Premier League team after he turned out for Arsenal, Manchester City, Bolton and Chelsea and had a loan spell at Liverpool.

Anelka signed for Chinese side Shanghai Shenhua at the start of last season but finished the campaign back in Europe with Italian giants Juventus.

He has also played for Paris St Germain, Real Madrid and Fenerbahce and won 69 caps for France scoring 14 goals. However, he has not played for Les Bleus since the 2010 World Cup.
