CODY SET FOR CITY EXIT?

DRAMEH DEPARTURE COULD SPARK TIGERS' TRANSFER BUSINESS

- By BARRY COOPER

HULL City defender Cody Drameh is the subject of strong interest from Championship rivals ahead of the January transfer window, with playoff rivals Millwall, Stoke and Preston thought to be among his admirers.

Drameh has not played as much as he would have liked so far this season, becoming an understudy again to skipper Lewie Coyle once he recovered from the hamstring injury he picked up in preseason.

The fullback hasn't played a minute in City's past seven games, with his most recent outing coming off the bench when he played 12 minutes in the defeat to Ipswich Town at the end of November.

So far this season, Drameh has amassed 12 appearances, and played just under 800 minutes, as well as an outing in the Carabao Cup exit at Wrexham in August. He missed the 2-2 draw at Sheffield Wednesday with a slight hip complaint and again was missing from Monday night's 1-0 win at Middlesbrough.
