Newcastle United have secured an immediate return to the English Premier League after beating Preston North End 4-1 at St James' Park on Monday night.
Former Nigeria U20 international Sammy Ameobi was not involved tonight but had suited up four times for the Magpies after he was recalled from his loan spell at Bolton Wanderers in the January transfer window.
The striker appears to be on the brink of an exit from Newcastle with his current contract set to expire in the summer.
Ameobi joined Newcastle United in 2008 and has permanently remained at the club, though he enjoyed brief loan spells at Middlesbrough and Cardiff City.
Before Rafael Benitez's side were demoted at the end of last season, the Nigerian appeared 53 times in the English top-flight, scoring 2 goals ( 3 assists).
