Hull confirms interest in Arsenal starlet

Hull City’s head of football operations Adam Pearson has confirmed the club’s interest in signing Arsenal youngster Jay Simpson.

But Pearson has admitted they first need to offload players before making a move for Simpson.

“Jay Simpson is a player we have expressed an interest in and that is as far as it has gone,” Pearson told the Hull Daily Mail.

“We still have to move players on before we can consider signing anyone, so our situation would need to change.

“All we are is a club that is interested in Simpson and we are monitoring his situation whilst we get on with our other business.”
