Hull City are looking to put their 3-0 defeat to Blackburn Rovers behind them, after they made a good start to the Championship prior to this fixture.

The Tigers were expected to struggle in the Championship this campaign; however, their opening two fixtures may have helped fans believe they could maintain their status in the second tier.

The defeat to Blackburn Rovers would have been worrying, not only for the result but also for the performance.

This may see Hull City dip back into the transfer market for further recruits, despite restrictions being placed on the club meaning they can only sign free agents or loans without a fee.

Hull did see their three-window transfer fee ban reduced to two, which has been a small positive, while another has been their ability to stave off Coventry City interest in Charlie Hughes.

However, one Tiger star has seemingly had enough and is set to leave the club this summer.

Sergej Jakirovic admits Abu Kamara wants to leave

New manager Sergej Jakirovic has not had an easy start to life at Hull City, as he has had to come and deal with a summer where the club have had to adapt in the transfer market.

However, he has seemingly looked upon the positives and brought the squad together, with the outlook of the season looking a lot brighter than it did before a ball was kicked.

He has now spoken with Hull Live about his transfer ambitions before the transfer window shuts despite having limitations on the business he can do.

He said: “We must take somebody in that will be one of our first 11 or first 13 players, which is something that we always try and do.

“It’s difficult. I don’t want to lose Abu Kamara, but this is the only solution, and Abu wants to go to Getafe. This is also his wish. Of course, I understand this because a football career is very short, so you have to try at least to play on this level.”

Further Hull City additions

The deal to loan out Abu Kamara is necessary for the club, as they are having to operate on a one-in, one-out basis at present to cooperate with FFP rules.

So, if the club want to sign their top target, Besiktas midfielder Amir Hadziametovic, then the club need to ensure that a player leaves, and with Kamara aiming for this move to Spain, it makes him an easy solution.

Hull City had to bid farewell to Gustavo Puerta, who had to return to Bayer Leverkusen despite having agreed a deal with the Tigers last season, due to the embargo on the club meaning they couldn’t register him this season.

Sergej Jakirovic admitted that he would be more than happy if the squad were fully fit; however, due to several injuries, he believes there is a need to do some business.
