West Bromwich Albion striker Peter Odemwingie suffers an injury setback.

West Bromwich Albion striker Peter Odemwingie has suffered an injury setback.

The Nigerian had sustained an ankle injury in pre-season, but came on as a substitute in last week's defeat at Chelsea, before missing Sunday's defeat to Stoke.

"How serious it is, we don't know. He played last Saturday for 10 minutes against Chelsea, he trained Monday-Tuesday, then we had two days off," said manager Roy Hodgson.

"When we came back in, the ankle injury was plaguing him again. I'll have to wait and see. I thought on Tuesday when I left the training ground that he would be fit at the weekend.

"But his ankle isn't okay and we will have to wait and see when it will be."

The Baggies' next Premier League game is away at Norwich City on Sunday, September 11.
