Andy Robertson to seal Hull City move as Fenerbahce are linked with Ciftci
ByIan Roache
Andy Robertson is expected to be unveiled as a Hull City player.
The Dundee United and Scotland star travelled down to the Tigers’ Cottingham training complex to put the finishing touches to his move to the Barclays Premier League.
A deal that will net the Tangerines almost £3 million was agreed last week but Robertson stayed with United over the weekend and even attended their friendly against Hibs at Easter Road as a spectator.
He finally took the road south on Monday with his parents to have a medical and complete the switch. United could take 21-year-old English defender Conor Townsend as part of the deal.
Meanwhile, reports in Turkey suggest Fenerbahce are considering a move for United striker Nadir Ciftci. The Istanbul-based side are rumoured to be preparing a 1 million euro bid for the 22-year-old frontman.
However, if that is the sort of cash figure they are contemplating tabling then it will be quickly kicked out.
United want to hang on to their frontman and, in the wake of Ryan Gauld’s departure to Sporting Lisbon and Robertson’s imminent exit, they are unlikely to contemplate selling anyone else.
