Wolves are moving for Hull City midfielder Kevin Kilbane.

The Daily Star says Republic of Ireland veteran Kilbane is wanted by Wolves and is expected to join them for a minimal fee later this week.

Kilbane joined the Tigers from Wigan in a £200,000 deal 12 months ago and was a key part of Phil Brown's side last season.

But he has made just seven league appearances this season and chairman Adam ­Pearson is keen to get him off the wage bill.
