With funds not available in plenty, Rafael Benitez has tried to ship out unwanted players from the club, and Saivet looks like the latest player to be heading out of the club.
The 27-year-old joined the Magpies in 2016 from French club Bordeaux but has only managed a handful of games since his arrival.
He has a contract with the Tyneside club till 2021, but the Magpies are looking to ship him out on a free transfer.
