The Magpies manager yesterday denied all knowledge of an offer for the troubled teenager, but did not refute any interest.
Newcastle are also thought to have renewed contact with Paris-Saint Germain over summer target Mevlüt Erdinç, suggesting a shift in policy from the stance taken late last month that they would only look to sign a centre-back.
While unprepared to name names, Pardew did say: ?We?re looking at the market. We?ve got ourselves in a position where we can move if we feel a player becomes available who will benefit the club now, in the short term, or in the longer term.?
Newcastle failed to agree a fee with PSG for French-born Turkish international Erdinç in the summer as they tried in vain to fill the fabled No 9 shirt.
Pardew admitted the injury which ruled Sammy Ameobi out for the rest of the season may have changed his January policy.
