Premier League sides chasing Tigers defender

Skysports.com understands a host of Premier League clubs are tracking Hull City defender James Chester. Chester has established himself as a key player for the Tigers since his arrival from Manchester United last January and he has been an ever-present in the side this term. Chester was highly-regarded by the Red Devils, but the defender decided to move on in search of regular first-team football. The 22-year-old's performances at the KC Stadium have not gone unnoticed, with several Premier League sides casting their eye over the central defender. The likes of Everton and Bolton are both thought to have had him watched this season and are continuing to keep tabs on the player. Hull would be reluctant to lose Chester, but could face a fight to keep hold of him in January if any of his Premier League suitors made a firm offer for his services.
