Hull City have settled on their compensation fee with Blackpool for Thomas Ince
Hull will pay up to £2.3m for Ince, who signed for the club on a two-year deal in July.
Tigers boss Steve Bruce said: "I think it's a fair price. There has been a lot of hype about Tom and rightly so with what he did during his time at Blackpool. But, he's only a young lad and he still has time to develop his game.
"He has to be given time to find his way in the Premier League because there aren't too many 22-year-olds playing regularly in the top-flight.
"We've got to let Tom develop here. He's done particularly well for us so far, we're pleased with his progress but we still think there is more to come from him."
