Hull City are reportedly closing in on a deal for Eintracht Frankfurt forward Jean-Matteo Bahoya, according to TeamTalk, as cited by English Premier League Index. The move has gathered pace after the Tigers' pursuit of Malick Fofana hit a stumbling block, prompting Hull to pivot quickly to an alternative target in the market.
While full details of the arrangement haven't been disclosed, an agreement is understood to already be in place for the Bundesliga attacker's signature. It marks a swift piece of business from Hull, who appear determined not to let their transfer window stall despite missing out on their initial priority target in Fofana.
No further specifics on fee, contract length or medical timeline have been confirmed at this stage, but the report suggests Hull's move for Bahoya is progressing at pace as the club looks to strengthen their forward options.
