Hull City are reportedly closing in on a deal for Nice forward Mohamed-Ali Cho, according to French outlet L'Equipe, with a fee in the region of £17m said to be under discussion between the two clubs.
The report suggests Nice are close to agreeing terms with Hull over the young attacker, who has been on the radar of clubs across Europe following his development in Ligue 1. Should the move go through, it would represent a significant statement of intent from the Tigers as they look to strengthen their squad this summer.
As per EPL Index, sources indicate the deal could progress quickly if both parties finalise the finer details, though nothing has been officially confirmed by either club at this stage. Cho, still regarded as one of the more promising young talents to emerge from the French top flight, would arrive with plenty of potential but also an expectation to adapt swiftly to English football.
Fans will be watching closely to see whether this reported £17m move for Cho becomes Hull's marquee summer signing, with confirmation from either club expected to follow in the coming days if talks continue as described.
