Former Premier League striker Peter Odemwingie has warned Sky Sports, West Bromwich Albion and Queens Park Rangers that he is considering legal action over his infamous failed transfer on deadline day in 2013.Odemwingie was at the centre of one of the most bizarre deadline day stories of all time when he was interviewed by reporters from through his car window outside QPR’s Loftus Road stadium, believing he had completed a move to the London club.It later emerged that QPR and West Brom, Odemwingie’s club at the time, had failed to agree a transfer fee for the Nigerian striker and the proposed move collapsed just minutes before the 11pm deadline, ultimately sending him back to the Baggies.Odemwingie was subsequently disciplined by West Brom for his actions and criticised by the club’s then-chairman Jeremy Peace, who described his conduct as ‘wholly unprofessional’. The incident has since been repeatedly retold and replayed by media outlets, becoming a lasting symbol of the chaos and drama of deadline day.Footage of his infamous interview did the rounds again on Sky Sports News ahead of Tuesday night’s deadline, prompting Odemwingie to launch an attack on the broadcaster in a video on Instagram. Peter Odemwingie was involved in one of deadline day’s most chaotic transfer stories in 2013 when he was interviewed by reporters from his car outside QPR’s Loftus Road stadium The Nigerian has threatened legal action in a video attacking Sky Sports, West Brom and QPRWhile hitting out at Sky Sports for not telling the full extent of the story, he also criticised QPR for auctioning the shirt they had prepared for his arrival on deadline day in January 2013, which has remained at the club for 13 years.’Sky Sports agents and employees of both clubs – West Brom and QPR – definitely have questions to answer and I will be seeing a lawyer next week to make it official,’ he wrote when posting the video to Instagram on Tuesday.’From simply a human side of it @SkySportsFootball, what is the motive/intention to show this episode on and on for so many years? The least will be lack or absence of respect in my opinion. Maybe they don’t like that I am half Nigerian and half Russian? I can only guess. Could be something else. Who really knows.’Speaking in the video, Odemwingie accused Sky Sports of ‘milking’ the situation and set the story straight from his own perspective.’The problem about this whole story is that nobody is interested in the truth,’ he said. ‘They just want to be distracted. Sky Sports milked this situation for so many years. I think it’s just wickedness really.’Odemwingie claims the transfer negotiations were complicated by Junior Hoilett’s involvement in a proposed swap deal, which led to lengthy discussions between both clubs throughout the day.He then alleges that his agent, Barry McIntosh, worked alongside Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth to attempt to facilitate the move. According to Odemwingie, he was initially asked to take part in a Sky Sports interview while travelling towards London, but he rejected the idea, saying: ‘That’s stupid, that’s childish and I’ll never go in front of a camera on purpose.’Instead, Odemwingie claims he and McIntosh waited for around two hours after attempts to contact West Brom went unanswered, before eventually following his agent’s car to QPR, believing the transfer had been resolved.’Barry McIntosh told me it was all sorted,’ Odemwingie said. ‘His car was in front of mine and we were driving. I don’t even know where we were going, whether to the training ground or to the stadium.’I’d never been there before. Even when I’d gone to QPR, I just arrived on the bus and walked into the dressing room. They parked right by the doors. ‘We continued driving and I was following his car. When he pulled up, then I waited and the cameras came. But then, West Brom also misbehaved that day, saying it was a conditional decision and that Hoilett had to go the other way for the deal to happen. ‘There was no such condition given and they misbehaved. Then (Dan) Ashworth called West Brom director of football Richard Garlick. He also hit out at ex-Sky Sports host Natalie Sawyer, who criticised Odemwingie at the time In December last year, Queens Park Rangers sold Odemwingie’s never-used shirt at auction Odemwingie alleges that his agent, Barry McIntosh, worked alongside Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth (above, pictured in 2026) to attempt to facilitate the deadline day transfer’Shame on them, shame on Sky and the agents. Sky never wanted to interview the agent. He had direct links with Sky. ‘Dharmesh was interviewed by Roman and Evan Evans of World in Motion, because none of them gave any account of what happened.’In a separate video posted days later, Odemwingie hit out at former Sky Sports presenter Natalie Sawyer, who famously hosted transfer deadline day alongside Jim White.The former Nigeria international shared footage of Sawyer discussing the saga on air and asking: ‘Would QPR really want to sign a player that would do this?’Tagging Sky Sports, BBC Sport and talkSPORT, he cryptically posted alongside the video: ‘Tables have turned. The time is ticking. Heads out the sand guys.’ Daily Mail Sport has approached Odemwingie for further details about his proposed legal action.
