Newcastle United have handed trials to Dutch youngster Dani Cooks.
The 17 year-old was with Ajax last season, playing in the B1 competition, but has kicked off preseason with Willem II.
De Telegraaf says Cooks is now on Tyneside chasing a contract with Steve McClaren's Newcastle. The teen is currently a free agent.
Of his time with Ajax, Cooks insists he has no regrets.
"I've been coached by people like Bryan Roy, Dennis Bergkamp and Ronald de Boer. I still do not regret my move to Ajax.
