The Turkey International, who has French and Turkish nationality signed for PSG in 2009 for €9million on a four year contract.
Pardew said;
"Erdinç has always been on our radar. He's a very good player and that is all I will say at the moment. We had a bit of a disappointment with Kevin Gameiro as he has decided to go elsewhere. We made a fantastic offer to the club and to him, but these things happen.
We tried very hard on that one, but we always knew there would be setbacks along the way and we have always had other people in mind, deals we have been trying to keep to ourselves for obvious reasons. We are working extremely hard to make those deals happen and I'm pretty happy with how things have gone so far.
We should have another signing finished in the next few days, and we will able to confirm that one as well.''
