Hull City are set to close a deal for Stoke midfielder Seyi Olofinjana today.

The Hull Daily Mail says Olofinjana was set to be the first into the KC Stadium today after the Tigers agreed a £3m fee for the 29-year-old.

Olofinjana's arrival will mark the end of the drought today after City hijacked the Nigerian's move to Monaco at the 11th hour.

Stoke had been expecting to sell the former Wolves man to the French side only for the Tigers to tempt him with a three-year deal to stay in England.
