City should take advantage of the contract stand-off at relegated rivals

CITY'S CHAMPIONSHIP STATUS WAS SECURED IN DRAMATIC FASHION AT PORTSMOUTH

Hull City's transfer work this summer will be fascinating to watch, as owner Acun Ilicali aims to avoid the mistakes of last year when the Tigers left much of their business until late in the window.

That left manager Tim Walter frustrated, and City well behind the eight ball, which in truth, they were never able to recover from and left them struggling to survive, relying on Luton Town being hammered at West Brom to stay in the league.

After spending a significant amount of money last term and still facing some of those transfer payments over the next few months, recruiting well and sensibly will be absolutely crucial.

There are numerous players coming to the end of their contracts this summer that will surely be of interest to the Tigers, but one player they should look to target is Plymouth Argyle's Mustapha Bundu.

Bundu is a strong, pacey winger and is out of contract at Home Park this summer.
