Hull are ready to make a record-busting move for Manchester Unitedâs England World Cup striker Danny Welbeck.
Steve Bruce will have to pay around £14million for Welbeck, who has been told his chances of first-team action will be limited under new boss Louis van Gaal just weeks after he started for the Three Lions against Italy and Uruguay in Brazil.
Bruce is after a replacement for Shane Long, who is a shock £12m target for Southampton just months after joining the Yorkshire side from West Brom in the January window.
And the Tigers' chief hopes Van Gaal will make a bold decision and cash in on Welbeck as he re-shapes the Old Trafford giants' squad with players of his own choosing.
Welbeck wants to keep himself in England manager Roy Hodgsonâs plans, with Euro 2016 qualifying getting under way next month.
