The <a href="http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/all-about/sammy%20ameobi">Chronicle </a>is reporting that&nbsp;Newcastle United striker Sammy Ameobi, younger brother of Super Eagle Shola, could represent the Nigeria National Team after the World Cup.<br /><br />Though the 22 - year - old has been capped by the England youth teams, he remains eligible to sport the colours of Nigeria, having never made an official appearance for the senior team of England.<br /><br />Next term, Newcastle manager Alan Pardew is not prepared to hand Sammy Ameobi a role in the first team just as he did in the 2013 - 2014 campaign, where he made only 4 starts out of a possible 38 in the Premier League.<br /><br />And knowing that the National Team selectors may overlook him if he is not playing week in, week out, a move to Middlesbrough is on the cards to enhance his chances of first team football.<br /><br />Sammy Ameobi has been on the books of the Magpies since the age of 16, apart from a brief spell on loan at Boro last year.<br /><br />Photo Credit: journallive.co.uk<br /><br />
