Magpie-Mackem Partnership Good Enough For Premiership?

Last updated : 26 June 2008 By Footy Mad - Editor
Mowbray is more likely to land Ameobi first for a fee in the region of £2.5million.

The former England under-21 player is a big admirer of Mowbray and believes the Baggies boss is just the man to get his career back on track.

The 26-year-old is expected to partner former Mackem Kevin Phillips, who is set to sign a one year deal with the club.

34-year old Phillips had stalled on talks because he wanted a two-year deal, putting himself in the transfer window.

But no other Premiership club was interested and he looks set to complete the one-year deal this week.

Ameobi and Phillips? Is it good enough to keep Albion in the Premiership?
