Yeremay Hernández has once again become a key figure in the transfer market after being heavily linked with Sporting. The Deportivo La Coruña winger is now a priority for Hull City, newly promoted to the Premier League, who are preparing a record investment to try to secure his signing.

In an interview with ‘BBC Humberside’, Acun Ilicali, president of the English club, confirmed that the player did in fact visit Hull and revealed that he wants to resolve the process quickly. “We are at a very positive point,” he said, pointing to a timeframe of “three or four days” to reach a conclusion.

The executive also recalled Sporting’s move in the last transfer window. Ilicali spoke of a €25 million offer rejected by Deportivo, although the Spanish press indicates that the figures put forward by the Lions were closer to €30 million. Hull are now preparing to break the club’s transfer record.

“Of course Yeremay wants to come, but it is a vital decision for him,” added Acun Ilicali. This willingness could prove decisive, since Deportivo have repeatedly stated that they will only consider negotiating below the release clause, close to €140 million, if the player himself clearly expresses a desire to leave.

, an issue that Hull do not, for now, see as a deal-breaker. After Sporting tried to sign the winger, the Spaniard’s future may now lie in the Premier League, with the English club confident of a resolution in the coming days.
