West Bromwich Albion have signed Cameroonian defender Allan Nyom from Watford for an undisclosed fee.

The 28-year-old, who has signed a four-year contract with the Baggies, will wear the number two shirt for his new club.

Nyom joined Watford from Granada in the summer of 2015 and made 36 appearances during his first season in the Premier League.

"I received a call from my agent last night and he told me about the offer to come here and I was happy to do so. Last year was my first in England. I was so happy to play in the Premier League as I think it is one of the best leagues in the world. I enjoyed it a lot," Nyom told West Brom's official website.

"The Premier League is completely different to other Leagues because here there is more intensity, more fight... the atmosphere in England is better than Spain. The team here is good and with good players, a team that plays together. I'm going to try to bring energy and to give my best every game; I want to help the team."

Nyom has made 14 appearances for the Cameroon national team.
