The Magpies have been largely silent during the ongoing transfer window, with Joe Willock being their only major addition.
Newcastle have been linked with a host of players, including Leicester City’s Hamza Choudhury, ahead of today’s deadline, but are unlikely to do any business.
While Newcastle are unlikely to make further additions to their squad, it has emerged that they considered signing former Celtic star Ntcham this summer.
The Tyneside-based club showed an interest in the Frenchman and briefly considered him again this summer, but did not make a move to sign him.
Ntcham, who has been without a club since leaving Celtic this summer, looks set to join Championship club Swansea now.
The former Manchester City youth star is currently undergoing a medical with the Welsh giants before putting pen to paper on a deal with them.
There are still some financial details to be resolved before Ntcham can be officially announced as a Swansea player.
