Hull City are in talks with three interested parties over a takeover, according to Sky Sources.
Current owner Assem Allam, who took over the club in 2010, put the club up for sale in April 2014.
In 2013, Allam attempted to rename the club 'Hull Tigers' but had the move blocked by the Football Association. He subsequently looked to sell and has come close on two occasions.
Allam agreed to sell the club to the Dai family in 2016, but they eventually bought Reading when the deal collapsed. He also held negotiations with a consortium led by Chien Lee, who bought Barnsley in 2017.
Hull currently sit 21st in the Championship, having won just two of their first 11 games this season.
