Olympique Marseille have fielded an approach from Newcastle United for Florian Thauvin.
Canal+ says Newcastle and Tottenham are chasing the winger for the summer market, with the Toon making a firm bid.
However, it's understood the offer fell well short of OM's valuation.
Marseille rate Thauvin at €20 million as they seek a quick profit on the €12 million they paid Lille for the youngster in 2013.
Thauvin won't consider moving to Newcastle should they be relegated at the end of this season.
