Hull City are in the market for a new centre-back this summer, with the Tigers releasing Adam Curry, Ondu0159ej Mazuch and Liam Ridgewell. Nigel Adkins will be left with Reece Burke, Jordy de Wijs and Angus MacDonald next season, but MacDonald spent 2018/19 out with a blood clot in his calf so Hull will need at least one defender going in the opposite direction.
Tommy Elphick was linked with a return to Hull earlier in May, but the club reportedly had reservations about the cost. Aston Villa recently confirmed that the 31-year-old had been released this summer so he could be available on a free transfer in the coming weeks.
