Yohan Cabaye has already been signed at St James’ Park but with captain Kevin Nolan set to leave the club, Alan Pardew is keen to keep a number of options.<\/p>\n

Barnetta has reportedly told his current club Bayer Leverkusen that he wishes to leave and could be available for \u00a36 million.<\/p>\n

Gardner looks set to remain in the Premier League following Birmingham’s relegation and now looks set to choose between north-east rivals Newcastle and Sunderland who have both, allegedly, had \u00a35m bids accepted.<\/p>\n

Barnetta may have attracted attention from Premier League bosses after bagging a brace against England at Wembley earlier this month. The winger has 59 international caps and has scored 23 goals in 180 Bundesliga appearances for Leverkusen since signing in 2004.<\/p>\n

Gardner impressed despite Birmingham’s relegation last season, scoring eight times in the Premier League from 29 appearances.<\/p>\n

Toon fans will be happy to see investment in the squad which was promised after receiving \u00a335m from Liverpool for Andy Carroll in January.<\/p>\n
