The Magpies are looking to strengthen their attacking options this month and have already agreed a fee with Tottenham for Andros Townsend.
West Brom striker Saido Berhaino was Newcastle’s first choice striker but talks have stalled over a move for the England international, and they made an enquiry about Remy.
And according to the Daily Mail Steve McClaren's side have been told they will need to pay £12m for the Frenchman.
