The rumoured double swoop is about Darren Bent and Loic Remy, according to Sky Sports.
Newcastle boss believes the team has become over-reliant on Papiss Cisse for goals, particulary since Demba Ba’s departure to Chelsea at the turn of the year.
“Both of those players are on our list. I make no bones about that.” Pardew told the Northern Echo.
“We do need two strikers. Last year, I didn’t think there was enough competition in that area for a Premier League team.”
As both Remy and Bent are eager to move away, after enduring a tough time under Paul Lambert(Bent) and Harry Redknapp(Remy) this swoop could be a real bargain. Bent has been unable to live up to the £18m price tag since arriving from Sunderland in January 2011 and has played as a substitute to the Belgian sensation, Christian Benteke last season.
Remy joined QPR in an £8m deal but since the London club were relegated, he is available due to a clause in his contract.
