Danny Graham: 'I jumped at the chance to join Hull City'

Sunderland striker Danny Graham has admitted that he "jumped" at the chance to join manager Steve Bruce at Hull City on a season-long loan.

As expected, the recently-promoted club confirmed the signing today following Graham's arrival at the Tigers' training camp in Portugal.

"I know I'm coming to a good club with a top manager, a fantastic stadium and some very good players," Graham told Hull's official website. "When the chance came to sign here on loan, I jumped at it."

Graham has also revealed that Black Cats boss Paolo Di Canio informed him that the striker, who moved to Sunderland from Swansea City in January, was not part of his plans.
