Championship strugglers Hull City have appointed Reading boss Ruben Selles as their new head coach.

The 41-year-old Spaniard replaces Tim Walter after the Tigers sacked the German last week following a run of nine games without a win.

Selles leaves the Royals in sixth place in League One despite the club facing an uncertain future due to off-field issues.

His new side are 22nd in the Championship, with just three wins from 17 league games.

Selles has signed a two-and-a-half year deal at the Tigers, who have agreed a compensation fee with Reading.
