Striker Roman Bednar has been suspended by West Brom following allegations he bought illegal drugs.
The 26-year-old Czech international was named and pictured in a newspaper report on Sunday morning and the midlands club have taken swift action.
A statement from the Barclays Premier League club read: "Roman Bednar has been suspended while the club conduct an internal investigation into the matter." Bednar joined the Baggies from Hearts in August 2007, initially on loan before the deal was made permanent at a cost of £2.3million last summer.
The frontman was a revelation in his first season at The Hawthorns, finding the net 17 times in 22 starts as West Brom won promotion to the Barclays Premier League and made it to the semi-finals of the FA Cup.
This term he has started just 12 times in the league, coming off the bench on 14 occasions, and has scored six goals.
Bednar signed for Hearts from Czech club Mlada Boleslav in July 2005.
