Newcastle have agreed a deal to sign defender Massadio Haidara from French club Nancy.
The 20-year-old full back has made 17 appearances in Ligue 1 this season and will head to the north east for a medical.
"After 46 games and two-and-a-half years in the Nancy shirt, Massadio Haidara is leaving his former club for Newcastle United, currently sixteenth in the Premier League," a statement on the club's website read.
"The two clubs have reached an agreement and will finalise the transfer on Tuesday."
