West Ham United striker Modibo Maiga has been linked with a move to Newcastle United.
Newcastle are looking for a striker with former Hammer Demba Ba on the verge of joining Chelsea and Maiga could fit the bill.
Toon boss Alan Pardew missed out on Maiga last season after he failed a medical but could swoop for him in this month's transfer window.
