Newcastle have joined the race to sign former Tottenham forward Clinton N'Jie on loan from Marseille.
The Cameroon international spent one season in the Premier League with Tottenham where he managed just eight appearances without scoring, and was sent out on loan to Marseille for the 2016-17 season before securing a permanent move to the French side one year later.
He had a productive first two seasons with Marseille and managed 22 Ligue 1 appearances last season, however has been deemed surplus to requirements during the current campaign.
Portuguese side Sporting CP came in for N'Jie and the deal looked to be a certainty, however suddenly collapsed after the two parties failed to agree terms on the proposed deal.
