I'd sell hernandez to torino in a heartbeat if they can make half a decent offer. He's not built for a gruelling championship battle i don't think.

he has the potential to tear the league up but really don't see the right attitude in him. Sell him for £5 million and reinvest or cut losses.

According to a report in the Italian editorial TMW, Trabzonspor have tabled an official bid for Hull City star Abel Hernandez as they look to sign the striker on a three-year deal.

The Uruguay international only joined the Tigers 12 months ago, arriving at the KC Stadium for a club record transfer fee - as announced by the club - and went on to make just 15 Premier League starts last season.

A return to Serie A has been heavily mooted, with Sky Sports Italia last month insisting that Chievo, Bologna and Torino were fighting it out for his signature.

However, a move to Italy has so far failed to materialise for Hernandez and new reports cite a switch to Turkey could be in the pipeline as Trabzonspor make Hull an offer.

Double Swoop:

Signing Hernandez from Hull would be a double swoop for the Turkish out after they completed a deal for fellow attacker Dame N’Doye in the past few days - as covered by the BBC.

No future:

Despite arriving at the club boasting a pretty decent record in Italy, Hernandez struggled to adapt to the physicality of the English game, and the Championship can be unforgiving for foreign stars.

Hull spent a lot of money on him, and his wages probably fall in line with the highest earners at the club.

Boss Steve Bruce has brought in Chuba Akpom on loan from Arsenal and has so far retained the services of Nikica Jelavic this summer, paving the way for Hernandez to depart.

I have no idea who or what HITC (what the **** does 'here is the city' even mean?!) are, but they seem to post a lot of ****e. This is their latest effort.
 
Why are our transfer deals so protracted. Other clubs appear to get there deals done so easily. If we want Gray surely we should be looking to get him in by wednesday, so he can get a few training sessions in and get to know the other players before saturday's game.

He'll sign at 12.05 on Friday afternoon, be ineligble for Sunday, be match fit for Fulham and then do his hamstring ten minutes in. Even though it's only a tiny injury, he has to fly to Uruguay for some reason like all our new signings do. It's the Hull City way.

HITC are getting on my nerves, many of their articles are completely made up ****e.

Maybe because we are not playing on saturday.
 
I've not seen the documentary, so I can't really comment, but I couldn't find anything in their local paper about it. As you said they'll have a fair amount of money from the PL, plus their owner isnt exactly light on cash either.



I suggested him earlier in the window, but he doesn't seem as lethal an option as Gray does. Plus Huddersfield would probably want around £6m-£7m, which I think is double what he's worth.
I'm a bit worried that some of our fans like yourself are overrating Gray a bit based on last season, if we don't get him it might be a lot of money saved and I wouldn't be too unhappy if Brucey brought in another striker under the radar. Calling him 'lethal' is a bit OTT like when you were telling me a few weeks ago to give Huddersfield the utmost respect despite them being, a bit crap like. The guy has never played for a big team (I'll flatter us) and has no Northern connections

He will have when he gets the connection at Doncaster for Hull.
