Ellison 'the target'

Speculation on the Iron-Bru.net message board has suggested Ellison is the person involved, and Friday's Hull Daily Mail also makes the claim.

United had a bid accepted for a player at the beginning of May, but has refused to identify him in public.

Ellison moved to the KC Stadium from Chester City in the 2004/05 season, but is not a regular in the Tigers side.
