Newcastle are keen to revive their bid to sign Fulham midfielder Tom Cairney in the summer.
The 26-year-old was called up to the Scotland squad this week after his performances in the Championship.
His promising displays have also caught the eye of Newcastle United manager Rafa Benitez.
Newcastle made enquiries in January but Fulham were reluctant to sell their player of the year.
Cairney is rated in the £12million bracket by the Cottagers and will not be short of suitors at the end of the season.
