Fenerbahce could face competition from Newcastle for Perez but the newly promoted Premier League side only want him for the right price.
The Shield Gazette report that the Magpies are desperate to sign a new striker but have not made a firm offer for Perez.
Per the source, Rafa Benitez remains hopeful that a deal can be reached for the forward.
Arsenal signed Perez on a £17 million deal form Deportivo last season but Arsene Wenger only played him 21 times.
Despite having another two-years remaining on his contract, Perez looks destined to leave Arsenal.
The striker is unlikely to get much playing time next season after falling behind Lacazette and Giroud in the pecking order.
