Hull City have signed Manchester City striker Liam Delap.

Delap moves to the Tigers on a season-long loan. He spent last season on-loan with Stoke and Preston.

"I'm absolutely delighted that Liam is coming here, we've fought off a lot of competition from other Championship clubs and clubs around Europe," said Hull head coach Liam Rosenior.

"Liam completely fits into the way we play. He's got outstanding physical attributes and is a great finisher.

"He's got freak speed, is aggressive and can run in behind, which is one of the areas we wanted to address."
