West Brom signs Wales hero Robson-Kanu on free transfer
To see a list of completed deals in the summer window thus far, visit theScore's Premier League transfer tracker.
West Brom gave Euro 2016 phenomenon Hal Robson-Kanu another chance to play in the Premier League, signing the 27-year-old Wales international on a two-year contract Wednesday.
The deal includes an option for a third year.
Robson-Kanu scored two vital goals in France as his country made history with an unexpected semi-final appearance.
His contract with Reading expired before the Euros, and he claimed he had "offers from around the world" as a result of his performances at the quadrennial tournament.
The lure of the Premier League, however, proved a decisive factor.

He spent the past 12 years with Reading, going up to England's top flight with the Royals and then back down to the Championship.
Hull City also expressed interest in the 27-year-old, although that changed once Steve Bruce stepped down as manager.
