Pardew would be looking more at home for future signings.
But we hear he could be tempted by French winger Dimitri Payet.
Newcastle United were last night alerted to the surprise availability of Marseille star Dimitri Payet.
The winger, also linked with Arsenal, has been put up for sale by the French club, and they want him off their books now.
Reports in France yesterday revealed offers of around just £5million would secure the services of the talented 27-year-old, who has failed to make as explosive an impression than was expected since his £12m move from Lille.
Newcastle scouted Payet a year ago.
