Real Mallorca striker Pierre Webo remains on Newcastle United's wanted list.
The Sunday Sun says the Magpies pulled out of negotiations for Webo before transfer deadline day after Mallorca wouldn't lower their 10 million Euro (£7.9 million) asking price.
But Webo has made it clear he is keen to link up with former Mallorca team-mate Jonas Gutierrez at Newcastle, raising hopes of a deal being struck for the 26-year-old in the new year.
