The Tigers have been busy strengthening their squad for the new campaign but remain eager to add to their attacking options.

Hull chairman Paul Duffen told BBC Radio Humberside: "We've made a bid for Kevin Davies but Bolton have said he's not for sale."

Davies, 31, would have brought plenty of experience to the Hull squad, having made over 200 appearances for Bolton, after previous spells with Chesterfield, Southampton and Blackburn.
