Newcastle United remain in the hunt for Olympique Marseille winger Florian Thauvin.
The Evening Chronicle says the Toon haven't given up hope of signing Thauvin.
The Marseille winger is reportedly looking to leave the Stade Velodrome, having seen a number of high-profile exits this summer.
The Toon Army have splashed the cash on Georginio Wijnaldum and Aleksandar Mitrovic already, but Steve McClaren still has funds at his disposal.
