Campbell looks bound for Tigers

Hull have had a bid accepted for striker Fraizer Campbell accepted by Manchester United, the club have confirmed on their website.

The 21-year-old enjoyed a successful loan spell at the KC Stadium in the 2007-08 season when he scored 15 goals in 32 starts to help the Tigers into the Barclays Premier League.

Despite Hull’s desire to keep Campbell for their first season in the top flight he went on loan to Tottenham for almost the entire campaign.

However, they have had a bid – reported to be £6m – accepted by the Premier League champions and the east Yorkshire club have been given permission to open talks with Campbell.
