Hartson scored 20 goals for Celtic last season
|
Striker John Hartson is determined to assist West Brom's charge to regain their Premiership status and insists his move was not financially based.
The 31-year-old left Celtic to sign a two-year contract at the Hawthorns.
And he told the club's website: "I spoke to several managers but I told Bryan Robson if a deal could be done, I would like to come and play here.
"It's not about money. I could have earned more money if I stayed at Celtic as I had a year to run on my contract."
The former Arsenal and West Ham forward added: "The manager told me he was hoping to come straight back up and he wanted to hold on to everybody in the squad.
"When I looked at the squad of players and listened to the manager there was never any doubt this was the place I was going to come.
"I just really wanted the challenge of trying to take West Brom straight back up to the Premiership."
