Newcastle United have seen a bid for Dominic Solanke rebuffed by Bournemouth.
The Magpies were hoping to add the former Liverpool striker to their frontline this month.
However, The Telegraph states that the Cherries are in no mood to let their ace marksman leave.
Now 26, Solanke is finally showing the consistent scoring form that made him such an exciting youth product.
Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola knows that with two forwards at AFCON, he cannot afford to lose Solanke.
As a result of Dango Ouattara and Antoine Semenyo missing game time, Newcastle's inquiry was rejected.
