Newcastle are frantically trying to sign new players after moves for two attacking targets look to have broken down.
Man Utd have told Jesse Lingard he is staying at Old Trafford while Hugo Ekitike remaining in France.
With just hours of the window remaining, there is still time for Toon chiefs to finalise last-minute deals and give Eddie Howe’s the best possible chance of Premier League survival.
ChronicleLive looks at five offensive players the Magpies could chase now.
Go here for all the latest Newcastle United news
Dele Alli
The Athletic claim Newcastle are making a last-ditch bid to hijack Everton's move for Dele Alli.
The England international was expected to finalise a move to the Toffees after Antonio Conte made him available for transfer.
Everton remain in pole position for his signature... but could there be a late twist to the tale?
Divock Origi
Like Lingard and Nketiah, Liverpool striker Origi’s contract is also set to expire at the end of the season.
The majority of his time on Merseyside has been spent as a substitute but Reds boss Jurgen Klopp did hint at potential playing time due to Mo Salah and Sadio Mane being away on AFCON duty.
However, that opportunity has not materialised due to a muscle injury and he will need a transfer to have any chance of regular football in the second half of the campaign.
Ross Barkley
Chelsea’s forgotten man has made just five Premier League appearances all season and is surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge.
Once dubbed as one of England’s brightest prospects, Barkley desperately needs a move if he is to reignite his Three Lions ambitions.
Now the Lingard deal has fallen through, a move for the former Everton prodigy would not be a bad alternative.
Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta wants his ex-captain off the books and a deadline-day move to Barcelona looked set.
However, the move collapsed and Aubameyang could now be stuck in limbo from now until the end of the season.
Could Newcastle come to the rescue and help the 32-year-old end his Emirates’ nightmare?

Takumi Minamino
Minamino has not started a top-flight fixture for Liverpool this campaign and is another player who is desperate for game time.
The Japanese forward had mixed success at Southampton on loan last year and a move would be best for all parties.
