Hull Make Bid For Livepool's Ayala

Hull City has stepped up their interest in Liverpool defender Daniel Ayala.

The Spaniard spent the early part of the 2010/11 season at the KC, impressing before returning to Anfield. Despite spending the second half of last season at Derby County, Ayala has again emerged as the Tigers number one defensive target.

With Paul McShane injured and Kevin Kilbane having joined Derby County on loan, Ayala has remained as City’s top defensive target as Nigel Pearson seeks cover to James Chester and Jack Hobbs.

The Tigers interest is thought to have intensified following an offer for Ayala, but City still await the outcome of their enquiry as the season`s opener against Blackpool nears.
