With Yohan Cabaye and Hatem Ben Arfa both poised to take on England, they could be subjects of interest – if they show some of the form that helped the Magpies to fifth spot in the Premier League.
Pardew has assigned his scouts to the tournament in Ukraine and Poland, with France’s fixture list a big interest to the Magpies, and it is believed that Montpellier duo Olivier Giround and Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa and Mathieu Debuchy will once again go under the microscope.
Yanga-Mbiwa is rated at £7m and wanted by Arsenal and Manchester United.
Alan Pardew: “We’ll be represented at the Euros.
“There are a couple of players we’re looking at in that tournament and, as far as I’m concerned, I hope they have an awful one!
“The valuations will go up and down – we’ll look at that.
“Someone’s reputations will go through the roof, and someone’s won’t. That might affect the price.
“Most clubs want to hold off to see how their players do.
“You all want the bonus of your player being the star, or having a big tournament.”
