Steve Bruce is believed to be keen to bolster his midfield options before tonight’s 11pm deadline with reported interest in a number of players.
Celtic midfielder Olivier Ntcham and Leicester City man Hamza Choudhury among those to be linked with a move to Tyneside.
The Magpies had considered a move for former loan favourite Jetro Willems but Bruce ruled out a potential return for the Dutchman as he’s yet to play a competitive game since recovering from knee surgery.
Meanwhile, outgoings are also likely at St. James’ Park with right-back DeAndre Yedlin being given permission to travel to Turkey ahead of a proposed move to Galatasary.

6. OUT - Matt Ritchie
The 31-year-old midfielder has been linked with a return to his former club Bournemouth this month. On Ritchie's future, Steve Bruce said: "I think we all understand what Matt’s situation is. His frustration is that he’s not playing week in, week out. It would take a hell of an offer (to persuade club to sell)." Photo: Julian Finney
7. IN - Ainsley Maitland-Niles
The Magpies have been credited with an interest in the England international. The versatile 23-year-old has started just five Premier League matches for Arsenal this season and is also attracting interest from the likes of Leicester City, Southampton and West Brom. Photo: Pool
