Chinese second division club Beijing Enterprises have released Nigeria striker Victor Anichebe, according to ScoreNigeria.
The former Everton striker signed for the Chinese club in June last year, but failed to hit the ground running in the Far Eastern country and only scored twice in 11 league games for the ambitious team, who only managed to finish eighth last year in the Chinese second division.
The 29-year old has previously featured for Everton, West Bromwich Albion and Sunderland in the Premier League in England.
He has also been capped by Nigeria at U23 level, playing at the Beijing Olympics where Nigeria lost in the football final to a Lionel Messi-inspired Argentina.
