Talksport understands that the association sent the delegates for discussions with the Bundesliga page via a deal to Germany.
Frankfurt Value Ekikats for £ 77 million, with Chelsea also showing interest in the French.
Although Newcastle is careful, their negotiations could be kidnapped, but the magpies want to complete a deal for the 23-year-old.
The possible arrival of EktiSchen is with a prospect that he will play in attack next to the Toon Hero Alexander Isak next season.
It would not be the first time that the Frankfurt Starlet had the opportunity to be part of a double act.
Before moving to the Etihad Stadium, he had a fatal effect with Omar Marmoush in Manchester City.
But, as the German football expert Seb Stafford Bloor emphasized on Hawskbee and Jacobs from Talksport, the duo was much more worth than just goals and templates.
“They were one of the most attractive partnerships in the Bundesliga for a while,” said Stafford Bloor.
“They had their own composite nickname ‘Hugomar’. There was real cohesion, understanding and instinct between them, which is interesting because they were both pretty similar and both like to play in the same areas.
“Marmoush is central with a kind of tendency to push left. Ekics is very similar and yet they had an understanding that they did not take over the other.

“You are able to digest yourself. You can react to what the other did with the ball. Some really, really wonderful moments.
“I suspect that Newcastle fans have already hurried to YouTube to find the highlights so that they see many of these things. But Ekikte is by no means a soloist.
“Everything that people say about his technical skills is true. He is a wonderful, exuberant, optimistic footballer, but also intelligent. Kleed what his teammates do around him.
“The question is not only whether he could play with another striker, Alexander Isak, but what he could bring with other players. Runner from midfield and full -back who go outside of him.
“He is really quite complete. Not the finished article, the game is still learning, but he is a very, very wide talented player.”
Ektiten and Marmoush met 36 occasions for Frankfurt between the initial arrival of the latter in February 2024 and the move of the Egyptian 11 months later.

In these games they scored 35 goals together and combined directly for six.
In the meantime, Isak is fresh from its most productive season in a Newcastle shirt.
During the last term, the Swedish striker scored 23 goals in 34 Premier League appearances.
He was also at the destination in the Carabao Cup final when the Magpies ended her 70-year waiting time for a large domestic trophy.
