Newcastle United are willing to throw Hatem Ben Arfa into the mix in order to land Alexandre Lacazette from Lyon.
The Magpies are determined to lure the 23-year old forward but have been unsuccessful in their pursuits thus far, failing to come to an agreement with Lyon.
Reports emanating in France suggest that Lacazette could be open to a move to the Premier League which has alerted Newcastle who are prepared to offer Ben Arfa in order to capture their man.
Lacazette, who has scored 38 goals for Lyon, would cost Newcastle around £15million according to reports.
