Ross Barkley is one of the names discussed within Newcastle as a potential January signing, according to The Telegraph.
The club's new Saudi owners aim to 'move quickly' for prospective targets as the threat of relegation is very real. The Magpies are bottom of the table with seven points and are yet to win a game.
They are also confident that, despite previous rumours, the other Premier League clubs would be prepared to deal with them as with any other club.
Barkley is just one of the names mentioned in the report, alongside Man United's Jesse Lingard, Liverpool’s Nat Phillips, Burnley's James Tarkowski, Atletico Madrid’s Kieran Trippier and Tottenham’s Harry Winks.
Barkley has played eight games for the Blues this season. He has not featured once since the last international break, though, as he stayed on the bench for four consecutive games.
