Yannick Toure is now training with Newcastle United's U23 team.
Newcastle's U23 coach Ben Dawson is also getting a good look at Swiss whizz-kid Toure on the club's mini tour of Scotland.
The 17-year-old spent time on trial at the club's Academy last season and joined the Magpies after his contract expired with Young Boys Berne.
He is yet to officially be named on any squad lists this summer for the Magpies, says the Evening Chronicle.
