Is it true that he won't be offered a new contract?

However, the more I think about it, I think he has a year option extra at the clubs decision, but he will be on a highish wage, so knowing Ehab, even though we could get a good transfer fee for him if he recovers OK, probably he might decide to let him go to save the wage bill.

I'm afraid you're very probably correct John.
 
Unless we pretend that we actually can't stand the player and dispise him because the owners bought him to the club.
That way he will be here as long as they are.if he occasionally winks at ehab.that might help as well

Reactions: Howden Tigress
Nigel Adkins is uncertain whether Moses Odubajo will be able to feature for Hull Citythis season.

After overcoming a knee problem that has prevented him from playing for almost two seasons – his last competitive appearance for the Tigers coming in the 2016 Championship play-off final – the full-back is still waiting to make his long awaited return to the first team.
A return to action with the under-23s came last month, playing 45 minutes for Jon Beale’s side against Burnley in the Professional Development League, but unfortunately he picked up a hamstring injury prolonging his lengthy stay in the treatment room.

Nevertheless, with just two games left before another season comes to an end, Odubajo’s hopes of making an appearance are in doubt as he continues to battle against injuries.

“I don’t know is the answer,” Adkins said when asked if Odubajo will play again this season.

“Moses is injured again. He played for the under-23s, damaged his hamstring, recovers from that, comes back does one training session with us and he’s got a sore hamstring again.

“His knee appears to be ok, but as we have highlighted before with players coming back from long-term injuries sometimes the mechanics of the body and the muscle imbalances with the demands that are required – training is good here, there is a good intensity about what we do and he has to fit into that.”

The 24-year-old is one of eight players in the City squad who are entering the final few weeks of their contract at the KCOM Stadium, and unless a new deal is signed Odubajo’s three-year association with the Tigers will come to an end in the summer.

However, while Adkins remains cagey on the club’s contract issues, he admits the club needs to be sure of Odubajo’s ability to remain fit, while hinting a new deal may have been offered already.

“It’s fair to say that we know Moses is a talented football player,” Adkins added. “But has he recovered sufficiently from his injuries and can he get to a level where you go and play or be in the squad of players available to play a lot of games of football?

“I think everyone needs to be sure of it, but it’s not to say that we haven’t already offered him a contract.”
