His older sister, Titi, revealed on her Instagram page that her brother is finally leaving home for Cardiff City.

"My Lil bro Leaving home properly for the 1st time To start new venture @ Cardiff City. All the best Lil Bro. God has already gone before U and made your path straight!

Cardiff City look set to sign Sammy Ameobi on a year-long loan deal after the player's sister confirmed he was moving to the Welsh capital.

Bluebirds boss Russell Slade faced a tug of war with fellow Championship side Wolves to sign the Newcastle United forward with the player expected to make a decision on his future this week.

Is Sammy Ameobi a good signing for Cardiff City?

YES
NO

And it looks as if the 23-year-old Ameobi will now head over the Severn Bridge for the season ahead to become Slade's second summer signing.

The move was confirmed by Ameobi's sister Titi who posted a photo to Instagram of the player heading for pastures new.

Great.

Afraid I share the same view as most Newcastle supporters.

Ah well... You'll be one of the fans who soon licks his arse when he comes good in the Championship

Interesting if its going to be a loan or permanent transfer. Would have thought Newcastle would have announced hes signed a new deal by now

Let's hope he puts in 100% and lives up to his talents.

I was thinking that... The way his sister speaks, it makes me feel that it's a permanent deal but I may just be clutching!

Dont care what newcastle fans say. They wanted keegan back as their manager.

Every set of fans says shit about players leaving. Like people on here saying medel was crap.

He was excellent against us last season for Boro

Anyone else chuckle at her name?

How many did he score for Newcastle at this level ?

I have to say I am shocked to have beaten Wolves for his loan signature,but more than happy, WELL DONE CITY

Anyone else chuckle at her name?

No. How immature...



Ok.. Maybe a little

Its a great signing , very hard working & can play wing or upfront ,

How many did he score for Newcastle at this level ?

Think he was still in the youth team then. Started 15 premier league games last season.

Even though I was told at the end of last week that Wolves hadn't won the race and City were still very much in the mix, I am still surprised but happy we have pulled the deal off.

Happy with this signing.

what number shirt will god be wearing

and will god score goals

He was excellent against us last season for Boro

I went to that game and he was the difference. He scored a goal which he created out of nothing for himself and he showed he has an abundance of ability that game. In the second half he had 3 City players around him and shrugged them all off to keep possession with his body strength and quick feet. He's pacey, skilful, powerful and is a Premiership standard player. He just needs to sort his attitude and consistency out, as I can imagine him being very similar to JET, all the talent but frustrating.

Still, he had 27 appearances for Newcastle last season, which shows he can't be that bad at all, otherwise he wouldn't have had that many appearances. He also scored 6 seconds after coming on the pitch away to Spurs. Overall, I am happy with this signing, ability wise he will be one of the best Championship signings this season.

Whether he will consistency produce his talent for us this season remains to be seen. I can see him getting subbed at half time after doing absolutely nothing, then coming on as a sub for another game and single handedly winning us the game. As long as he puts in a shift for the majority of games, I'm confident Ameobi will prove to be a great signing. At least we won't be lacking the creativity and flair we previously lacked with players like Ameobi in the team.

Welcome Ameobi! So come on ameobi score some goals for city we'll go wild wild wild we'll go wild wild wild!!

I got a mate who's Newcastle daft and he reckons the boy has bags of potential and highly rates him, just have to see wether he delivers

Hopefully he will be a great addition and not another zaha

Bloody hell I can't believe I'm agreeing with you

Zaha proved last season he's a very good player just a shame his head wasn't in it with us

Ross, a good account of him

This should put an end to the Cotterill rumours

If true, good luck to Sammy and well done to Slade.

I too hope he is not a Saha, deffo has the pace we crave but he needs positivity and desire.
He can get Bored.

Two young premier quality signings by slade maybe??

Hope the sladeslammers can get behind him.

If he succeeds great, if he fails, he's out. Simple.

Let's give them all 100% support this season instead of being the pantomime crowd in Tans circus last season.
