Newcastle United remain in discussions with Belgian club KV Oostende amid talk of the Magpies' multi-club venture.
Officials have been around the table with the newly relegated Belgium club throughout this week. Sources in Belgium say that a "delegation from Newcastle" have paid a visit to Oostende's KVO Stadium and training complex.
Newcastle are in discussions with Oostende's American owners as they look to expand their network into Europe. It is believed that Oostende have already held talks with both Wolverhampton Wanderers and AFC Bournemouth.
