Ameobi Movin Closer To Baggies

Newcastle Utd striker Shola Ameobi has been on intense speculation pertaining his future on Tyneside.

I have to admit, the lad's days on the Magpies are numbered and the big lad has been linked with numerous clubs like Norwich City, Ipswich Town, Hull City and the latest being Premiership newcomers West Brom.

WBA boos, Tony Mowbray, has spent a total of £5.8 million in striking reinforcements already and is ready to splash the cash again on striker Ameobi.

Ameobi who insisted that he will only move on another Premiership side can foresee that the Hawtorns will be a likely destination.

Though the sum of £2.5 million is set to be tabled on the striker is not what Newcastle United would want, I personally believed Shola Ameobi should move on to revitalize his career and get more first team action on his belt.

He's currently under the pecking order behind Micheal Owen, Obafemi Martins, Mark Viduka and young Andy Caroll in the striking role.

Time to move on bro ... and I think he is not really missed by the majority of the Toon Army.
