Saints legend Rickie Lambert has completed a move from Liverpool to West Bromwich Albion.

Lambert, who left for his boyhood heroes last summer in a £4million deal, has signed a two-year deal at the Hawthorns after joining for an undisclosed fee.

He had been pushed further down the pecking order at Anfield with the arrival of Christian Beneteke, Roberto Firmino and Danny Ings.

The 33-year-old has had a tough time on Merseyside, with Brendan Rodgers never really considering him as a starting forward.

Tony Pulis said: "Rickie is a good, strong, solid player who is a great character, good in the dressing room and good on the pitch.

"We are very pleased to have him on board. He's a player of great pedigree and we look forward to integrating him into our squad."
