Shane Long is tightlipped over his future at West Bromwich Albion.

Hull City are keen to bring in the Republic of Ireland international and their manager Steve Bruce admitted the club have had 'a conversation with West Brom about Long's availability at boardroom level'.

"There's always going to be rumours with the month that we're in," Long told Sky Sports after Saturday's 1-0 defeat at Southampton. "It's exciting to watch I suppose but I'll try and keep myself away from it and just concentrate on the next game."
