‘ How Cardiff secured Sammy Ameobi on loan ‘

Newcastle had the final word in where Ameobi went on a seasons loan.

After Sammy Ameobi had agreed his new contract with Newcastle, Cardiff I believe have agreed, as long as Ameobi is fully fit, he must feature in every League game, Wolves were unable to give that guarantee.

As to the wages, both clubs were willing to pay approx 70% of his Ameobi’s wages.

Chairman Dalman did all the negotiations with Newcastle after Slade had met Ameobi last week.

To be fair to City, we have saved on transfers fees and a hefty signing on fee and got ourselves a Premier League player for one whole seasoN.
