Liam Rosenior: Hull City boss says return to the club as head coach gave him goosebumps

Newly-appointed Hull City head coach Liam Rosenior said his return to the club gave him goosebumps.

The 38-year-old spent five seasons with the Tigers as a player and signed a two-and-a-half-year deal to replace Shota Arveladze on Thursday.

Rosenior started the season in interim charge of League One side Derby County but left the Rams in September.

"It's well documented about my passion to become a manager. I had a feeling I would be back," he said.

Speaking to BBC Radio Humberside he added: "I've got goosebumps talking about it."

Rosenior made 144 league appearances for the Tigers between 2010 and 2015 and won promotion to the Premier League in 2013 before reaching the FA Cup final the following year.
