The 31-time Senegal international, who is out of contract with the Magpies at the end of the month, will sign on a two-year £100,000 contract, according to reports in the Newcastle Chronicle.
Several outlets had reported Wednesday’s interest in the player, though it is not known whether an official approach was made by the Owls for Diame’s services, which, if these reports are to be believed, would have been well out of their price range.
