Ince: Choosing Hull over Inter Milan was right call

Hull City winger Thomas Ince has no regrets turning down Inter Milan over the summer.

Ince joined Hull ahead of Inter after coming off contract at Blackpool.

"When I stood there in the San Siro, I couldn't believe where I was," said Ince.

"It obviously brought back all the memories of when my old man played there but there was something about it when I spoke to the people at Inter that meant it wasn't right just yet.

"This is now a big 18 months or so for me now to show I can play at this level and be the player people expect me to be. I've had two great years at Under-21 level and my ambition now is to try to push for the senior team. Now I'm trying to settle down and make the place a home.

"Playing for a club in the Premier League, and the exposure that comes with that, will hopefully provide me with the pathway to do it. You can see at the minute Roy Hodgson is giving a lot of young players from the Under-21s and Premier League clubs a chance. I hope I can get that opportunity."
