Every day Newcastle United seem to be linked to a new player, but the same story remains - the club are lacking cash to spend.

Owner Mike Ashley failed to deliver on his promise of funds last summer, and it appears to be happening again.

Manager Rafael Benitez has publicly aired his frustrations at the lack of money and lack of knowledge over what is going on behind the scenes.

Newcastle have managed to get some deals over the line, though, including Ki-Sung yueng, Kenedy, Fabian Schar and Yoshinori Muto.

According to Sky Sports Transfer Center (August 2, 15:29), Stanley N'Soki is the next person of interest for the Magpies.

The report states that the club have opened talks with Paris Saint-Germain regarding a possible £7m deal for the 19-year-old Frenchman.

The teenager predominantly plays as a centre-back, but he can also switch to left-back or play as a defensive midfielder.

Newcastle are believed to be in the market for a left-sided defender, but some fans have been left confused by the pursuit of N'Soki.

Sky Sports reporter Keith Downie posted the news on Twitter.
