City target £5 million United star!

Stoke City are supposedly targeting Newcastle striker Shola Ameobi according to reports in a number of papers today.

The Nigerian born striker is currently on loan with the promotion hopefuls and it is thought that should they make it into the Premier League they will make the deal permanent with their big cash injection.

It is expected that the former England Under 21 striker will cost Stoke up to £4.5 million, but personally I don't rate him too highly as a Premier League striker.
