Hull City are moving to trump Sunderland for Tottenham midfielder Tom Huddlestone.

Spurs boss Andre Villas-Boas played the 26-year-old 29 times last season after a successful return from his latest injury but he is willing to sell the injury-plagued midfielder, who has another two years on his contract.
