Newcastle United are in talks to sign Joelinton from Hoffenheim.
After the recent appointment of boss Steve Bruce, Newcastle are moving ahead with their transfer plans.
The 22-year-old striker is one of their primary targets.
Joelinton, who scored seven goals in 26 league games last season, was left out of a pre-season game by the German club.
Sky Sports reports that both clubs are in talks.
An amicable resolution is expected, which should allow the transfer to go through in the coming days.
