Reims president Jean-Pierre Caillot claims Newcastle's 'unrealistic clauses' in their £29million offer for 'wonderkid' Hugo Ekitike.
The Magpies are one of a number of clubs linked with a move for the 19-year-old, but they'll have to improve their offer.
Caillot claims Newcastle held talks with the Ligue 1 club but the offer did not suit the French club.
