Hull City centre-half Steven Mouyokolo is in the sights of Stoke City boss Tony Pulis.

The Mirror says the big defender, signed from Boulogne last summer, has become a regular in the Tigers side in the second half of the season and is one of the club's most saleable assets as they fear the cost of relegation.

Mouyokolo could be snapped up for around £2million and Pulis is favourite to win the chase for him - with Hull unlikely to be able to resist bids if they go down at the end of the season.

But the Stoke boss will have to act quickly - ­Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal are all said to have cast admiring glances at the Frenchman.
