Aleksandar Mitrovic has been in Belgium today

The forward was all set to leave Newcastle on a temporary basis this afternoon.

Mitrovic travelled to Belgium earlier today to finalise his return to the club he left in 2015.

Starsport understands the player was in Anderlecht's training centre earlier in the evening.

But now, the Serb's deal appears be off.

Newcastle later confirmed the striker will not be joining the Belgian outfit.

However, Mitrovic is expected to join another club.

Bordeaux were heavily linked with a move for the player earlier today.

The striker's presence on the sidelines has split fan opinion.

Sections of the St. James' Park faithful still want Mitrovic to remain at the club.

Luckily for Newcastle fans, forward Islam Slimani does appear close to completing his medical.

The Leicester star was spotted at the club's Benton training ground this afternoon.

Sparta goalkeeper Martin Dubravka is also expected in Newcastle in the coming hours.

The goalkeeper has been allowed to leave after the Czech side began negotiating with Steaua Bucharest for shot-stopper Florin Nita.
