Newcastle United's move for Lyon striker Bafetimbi Gomis has stalled.

The Daily Star says the Magpies have been put off by agents' fees, as well as personal terms, in a fresh enquiry about Gomis, 28.

Agents' commission - likely to exceed £1m - was a stumbling block last summer when Newcastle agreed a £9million fee and is an issue once again.

Now Gomis is out of contract his pay demands of £100,000-a-week are also a major problem.
