Brown seeking new Hunt deal

HULL manager Phil Brown has discussed a new contract with Stephen Hunt in an attempt to stave off persistent interest from Wolves.

The Republic of Ireland winger, who joined the Tigers on a four-year deal last summer, has been the subject of three bids from Molineux this month.

Despite their well-documented financial difficulties, Hull have rejected each offer – the latest of £4million, according to Brown – but their resolve could be tested again before Monday’s transfer deadline.
