Hull trials for Egypt U20 star Mahmoud Kahraba

Hull City have offered trials to Egypt U20 international Mahmoud Kahraba.

The Hull Daily Mail says the 19-year-old forward has been identified as "one for the future" by manager Steve Bruce and has a week-long trial ahead of the new season.

Kahraba is currently on the books of Egyptian side ENPPI, the same club where Ahmed Elmohamady was spotted by Bruce.

Bruce said: "He's going to try and come over to us when we get back from Germany but the difficulty for all these young players, especially a young Egyptian, is getting work permits.

"He's someone we've been made aware of and he's a very good player, but getting him into the country long-term will be a problem. There's the possibility of a special talent permit, but he's one for the future."
