However, Wednesday are yet to release the 58-year-old, as they have not agreed a compensation package with the Premier League club.

Now he may not be the only man in the race.

The report claims Génésio is in Newcastle to talk about a potential four-year contract.

Genesio left Lyon this summer after three-and-a-half years in charge.
