Celtic midfielder Olivier Ntcham is a target for Newcastle United.
Sky Sports says Celtic would prefer an option to buy clause added into a loan deal for the player.
However, Ntcham, who joined Celtic in 2017, has stated that he wishes to leave the club on a permanent basis.
The France Under-21 international has been forced to miss some games in the current campaign due to self-isolating after a trip to Dubai.
As well as Newcastle, fellow Premier League strugglers West Brom are also said to be interested in Ntcham and made an enquiry about the player earlier in the month.
