Kuol will be having talks with the club about his potential role at the club if he were to join on loan.
The 18-year-old joined Newcastle after signing a pre-agreement with the club in September.
He made the move at the start of January as he left the Australian club Central Coast Mariners after two years.
During his time at the Mariners, he made 18 first-team league appearances and scored six goals.
This form for a youngster caught the eye, and he was called up to his national side and has gone on to make three appearances for the Socceroos.
Two of these appearances came at the World Cup in Qatar, in which he impressed off the bench.
Newcastle manager Eddie Howe believes that it would be best for Kuol to go out on loan as he “needs to go and play”.
He said: “It’s a possibility Garang could train with us for a little while.

“But I do think that for the player’s development, he needs to go and play.
“If possible, that would be at a very good level, with a good club and a good coach.
“That’s not a decision that’s been made currently, so we’ll have to assess what all of our options are.”
