Newcastle have made further enquiries for Leicester City's £20m-rated striker Islam Slimani.
Rafa Benitez has interest from Brighton and West Bromwich Albion in Aleksandar Mitrovic and hopes to use funds from any sale for Slimani.
Benitez has also asked about a loan deal for Everton's Sandro Ramirez.
Slimani signed for the Foxes for a club-record fee of £28m from Sporting Lisbon.
The forward arrived after Leicester had won the Premier League but Slimani struggled to adapt to life at the King Power.
