Peter Odemwingie joins Stoke as Kenwyne Jones signs for Cardiff

Cardiff forward Peter Odemwingie has joined Stoke in a swap deal that has seen Potters striker Kenwyne Jones sign for the Welsh club.

Nigeria international Odemwingie, 32, struggled at Cardiff since joining in the summer and was out of favour under new boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Jones, 29, was frozen out at Stoke after refusing to play against Liverpool.
City manager Mark Hughes said: "We're delighted to have signed Peter."
He added: "Things haven't perhaps gone as well for him at Cardiff as he would have hoped and he's really keen to start afresh with us."

Odemwingie has signed an 18-month deal with the club, but the length of Jones's Cardiff contract has not been disclosed.
