Hull City have tabled a bid for Angers winger Nicolas Pepe.

Le 10 Sport says the Tigers have slapped in a bid for the midfielder, though have been informed they must go higher if they want to sign Pepe today.

Angers expect Hull to return with a new bid this morning.

Pepe was due to sign for Marseille before they managed to finally prise Dimitri Payet away from West Ham.

Along with the Angers star, Hull are also in talks with Lyon for defender Nicolas Nkoulou.
