Shock Philogene boost: How Hull City’s perfect 2024 summer transfer window surely looks
Hull City’s squad returned to training at the beginning of the week, with plenty of work needed between now and the start of the season.
The quality of last season’s squad under Liam Rosenior was well-documented, as the former boss utilised the loan market to great effect, in particular to source the likes of Liam Delap, Tyler Morton and Fabio Carvalho, among others.
His successor, Tim Walter, has seen more rumours regarding the potential departure of some of his most sought-after talents over the course of the summer, but the goalposts have started to move slightly in that regard.
It’s four weeks until the German’s first game in charge against Bristol City, with the summer transfer window closing 20 days later on August 30th.
With that in mind, Football League World takes a closer look at what constitutes an ideal window for the German and the Tigers.
Given the stellar form showcased throughout his first season at the MKM, it’s no surprise that Jaden Philogene has been so in-demand throughout the window.
It looked as if the most likely destination for the 22-year-old was Ipswich Town after reports of a potential double-deal with Jacob Greaves, before the likes of Everton and Aston Villa have tried their hand in the saga, with Villa also holding the card of a ‘matching rights’ clause.
