Hull City resume Nordin Amrabat chase?

Hull City are reportedly back in for Nordin Amrabat and are confident of completing a cut-price deal for the Galatasaray winger in January.

Amrabat came close to joining the Premier League outfit on loan last summer, but Galatasaray eventually decided to keep a player they paid around £8m last year.

The Moroccan international does not feature in new Gala coach Roberto Mancini's plans, having been restricted to just three first-team appearances since the Italian took charge in Istanbul.

Mancini is allowed just 10 non-Turkish players and wants Amrabat sold to free up room for foreign imports in his squad, prompting Hull to consider a move when the transfer window opens, according to The Mirror.

Tigers boss Steve Bruce is a long-term admirer of the former PSV Eindhoven winger and wants to resurrect a proposed loan move, and is waiting to hear back from Gala for concrete details on his availability.
