Tigers target defender on permanent basis
Hull City are set to sign Kamil Zayatte on a permanent basis during the January transfer window, according to the defender's agent.
The Guinea international joined the Tigers on loan from Swiss side Young Boys at the start of the season and has impressed during their superb start to life in the top flight.
City are believed to have agreed a £2.5million fee with Young Boys, with boss Phil Brown offering the 23-year-old a three-year contract.
Zayatte has so far made 14 league appearances for the Tigers and his representative Willie McKay is confident the deal will go through in January.
"It's pretty straightforward, it's just a matter of when," he told the
Daily Star on Sunday.
"I don't foresee any problems."
