Ipswich Have The Dosh - But Shola Fancies Their Rivals!

Last updated : 10 June 2008 By Footy Mad - Editor
Allegedly United have accepted a bid from Ipswich Town for striker Shola Ameobi, but (just as he did with Stoke City) the player has other ideas.

The Suffolk club have put a package together which would see United receive just under the £4m they had agreed with Stoke City for the 26-year-old former England Under-21 international.

Ameobi was on loan at the Britannia Stadium at the end of last season, but decided against joining them.

Now Ipswich have stepped in with a package but we hear Ameobi wants to link up with former boss Glenn Roeder at Norwich.

The problem is ... Roeder does not have that much money to spend.

Roeder will be back at his desk at Norwich tomorrow after a holiday in Florida, and I'm sure we will find out more.
