Newcastle United have made a new offer for Nice wing-back Allan Saint-Maximin.
With Steve Bruce installed as manager and Joelinton signed from Hoffenheim, Newcastle are now determined to reach terms for Saint-Maximin.
RMC says an offer of 18m was tabled on Friday - with OGCN yet to respond.
Nice are seeking to sell for 20m, though may be prepared to cash in now to clear Saint-Maximin off their books.
The wing-back isn't in the plans of Nice coach Patrick Vieira this new season.
