Newcastle United have been told that Barcelona striker Patrick Kluivert could be made available in January.

Recemt reports have suggested that Newcastle officials approached the Spannish club last month during the UEFA Cup draw about the strikers availability.

Barca president Joan Laporta immediately rejected the approach, but admits that Kluivert could be on offer in January.

The Dutchman was quoted in a magazine last week, admitting how the abuse he was receiving from a section of the Nou Camp could force him out of the club.
