And Hurtado could be viewed as a potential option, with the Venezuelan having impressed for Argentinian club side Gimnasia - despite only netting twice this campaign.
Indeed, his form has seen him likened to Brazilian attacker Neymar in South America, while the frontman has just been handed a maiden senior international call-up and could feature alongside Rondon should he be handed an opportunity.
Newcastle are thought to be one of a number of clubs keen on Hurtado, with Marseille and Atalanta also reported to be keen.
