Hunt hints at Tigers exit

(GSM) – Hull City midfielder Stephen Hunt has hinted that he is planning a future away from the Tigers.

The Republic of Ireland winger, 28, is the Tigers’ top asset and the club need to cut their cloth after crashing into the Championship.

Wolves had a £5million bid rejected in January but Hull are unlikely to snub any similar offer during the close season — and they may even sell for a cut-price fee.

Hunt is contracted until 2013, he replied, “I presume the club will want to sell me in terms of the overall financial structure.

“If we had stayed up I’d have been happy to remain at Hull but we’re not in the Premier League now and they may need to sell me.

“If I do move on, it will be with a clear conscience, and I can be honest about that. In January we had an agreement that they would sell me due to the financial situation that would arise from relegation.

“The chairman has been very good to me. He said once I gave my all for Hull he’d have no problem in honouring that agreement for me to go. I have done that, I have done well for Hull.

“Unfortunately, I haven’t delivered as much as I’d like because we’ve been relegated.

“The club say they will be willing to sell me at a reduction of the price they’d have got for me in January. I’ve no idea what that reduction will be and if a club will come up with the money.

“All I can do is concentrate on getting fit and see what happens,” midfielder shared his opinion.
