Newcastle have dropped their interest in Manchester United goalkeeper Dean Henderson to resurrect a loan move for Jesse Lingard, with Watford now interested in Henderson.
The Manchester Evening News revealed on Sunday Newcastle had shortlisted Lingard and Henderson among their potential deadline day loan options but a Premier League club can only loan in one player from another Premier League club.
Negotiations between Newcastle and United over Lingard collapsed last week after United insisted on a survival bonus but the relegation strugglers are now prepared to meet United's demands for a bonus.
