Newcastle are attempting to thrash out a deal with Norwich for England Under 21 international Jacob Murphy.
Fresh discussions were due to take place on Thursday with the Magpies having failed in an earlier bid to sign the winger.
It is understood the player has indicated his willingness to hear what Newcastle have to say as manager Rafael Benitez attempts to secure a third summer signing, but that the two clubs have markedly different valuations.
Benitez, whose frustration has been clear in recent weeks, will hope for good news with his wishlist still far from being fulfilled.
