Hull City boss Steve Bruce is in talks with Blackpool winger Thomas Ince.

The Daily Mail says Ince, 22, has turned down the chance to move to Inter Milan and is talking to clubs in England with Stoke City also keen.

Although Ince is a free agent, Blackpool believe the £1.5m loan fee Crystal Palace paid for him in January means they can demand £8m in training compensation at a tribunal.

That would have a huge bearing on whether Hull proceed.
