Hull City close in on Yannick Sagbo?

Hull City are reportedly preparing to announce the signing of Yannick Sagbo.

Manager Steve Bruce has made bolstering his striking options one of his major tasks during the ongoing summer transfer window.

Despite the fact that he recently secured the loan services of Danny Graham from Sunderland, Bruce is keen to add at least one more centre-forward and has settled on Sagbo, according to The People.

The report added that talks have taken place with the 25-year-old's club Evian TG and that a deal could be reached within the next 48 hours.

Sagbo has just 12 months left to run on his deal with Evian.
