Barcelona reportedly remain eager to part ways with midfielder Philippe Coutinho during the January transfer window.
The Brazilian has been provided with five starts and 11 substitute appearances this season, far more than was initially expected in the summer.
However, Barcelona's financial situation continues to cause concern, and it appears that they are determined to find a new home for the playmaker.
According to The Mirror, officials at the Catalan giants have enquired whether Spurs and Newcastle are still interested in the 29-year-old.
While the report suggests that Coutinho is unlikely to entertain a move to the Magpies, Spurs are regarded as a potential destination.
Barcelona will likely have to settle for a loan agreement if they are to reduce their wage bill next month.
