Wolverhampton Wanderers are considering a move for soon to be out of contract Newcastle United forward Sammy Ameobi.

The Chronicle understands that Wolves have joined West Bromwich Albion and Everton as interested potential suitors for the 23-year-old forward.

Ameobi is yet to be offered a new deal at United and must wait until the end of the campaign to see if he has any future on Tyneside.

Were Newcastle to let him go they would be entitled to compensation for Ameobi after bringing him through their Academy ranks.

Ameobi made his debut under Alan Pardew in 2011 at Chelsea in a 2-2 draw, but has failed to establish himself as a first-team regular.

Indeed, just 21 starts in the Premier League have came the way of Ameobi since making his debut.

A loan at Middlesbrough did hand him Football League experience but despite working with the player to try to get him to deliver Premier League standards, Newcastle have yet to prise the best out of a talented youngster who courted interest from both the English and Nigerian Football Associations.

Ameobi, Jonas Gutierrez and Ryan Taylor are the three high-profile players out of contract this summer.

And it is believed that a host of scouts from the Championship will be at Loftus Road this weekend to run the rule over both United and QPR’s list of summer leavers.
