Overview

  • Hull City has rebuffed Coventry City’s bids of £4m and £7m and refuses to negotiate below its valuation for Hughes.
  • Head coach Sergej Jakirovic said Hughes will remain at the MKM Stadium this month and joked that not even a post-match beer with Frank Lampard could change his mind.
  • Operating under an EFL-imposed transfer embargo, the club values Hughes at over £10m, with reports suggesting his worth approaches £12m.
  • Sheffield United and Premier League clubs have expressed interest in the 21-year-old centre-back, and Hull anticipate further offers before the window closes.
  • Hughes earned plaudits for an influential display in Saturday’s goalless draw at the CBS Arena, where he helped secure a clean sheet on the opening day.
