... Rumour No 9,845 - Newcastle are chasing QPR's teenage hotshot Ray Jones.

The 18-year-old is out of contract at the end of the season and Newcastle scouts have informed Glenn Roeder that the youngster is a star of the future.

Will QPR cash in on him in January or allow a tribunal to decide how much compensation they receive if he leaves in the summer? Either way, Newcastle can expect to join a queue.

Liverpool, Fulham and Wigan have already checked out the 6ft 4in.
