| Morita to Hull on 15:30 - Jul 22 with 6718 views | pointofblue | Appreciate they are a Premier League side but beaten to a signing by Hull? Perhaps their historic interest bore fruit. Still, we move on. Hopefully we'll be a able to bring in, I think we need three, of our central midfield targets. |  |

That was my first thought too. Wonder if this means that Musah might be our preferred option? |  |

Yes, most likely it means we have gone elsewhere. |  |

Fair to assume they offered him better terms than we were willing, potentially because we have other options available. I can't see any player picking Hull over us if the contract terms are exactly the same (location, squad, manager, facilities, the list goes on). |  |

Had heard he failed a medical here but the club still wanted to do something with him … presume we wasn’t prepared to take the risk. |  |

Last time we signed two midfielders, both with recent injury history, neither was available and fully fit most of the time. |  |

Probably a bit harsh on Jakirovic to be fair. Taking off the blue tinted specs I'm not sure Gary O'Neil is a greater pull than him, especially off the back of last seasons achievements. Their training ground is dire though. |  | |  |
| Morita to Hull on 15:47 - Jul 22 with 5767 views | Bellevue_Blue | Would have been a good signing. Can only assume more money and a guaranteed starting spot convinced him to go to Hull. Onto the next. |  | |  |

It's the area of recruitment we really need to get bang on this summer. Need x 2 of sufficient PL quality/physicality you can hang your hat on. |  | |  |

To somebody who doesn't live in the UK I'm sure there isn't any difference between Hull and Ipswich from a location perspective. To somebody who does live in the UK, I'm sure even tjey would struggle to see any difference between the two, other than one is a City and the other a Town. |  | |  |
| Morita to Hull on 15:58 - Jul 22 with 5225 views | pablo_canooga | Do Bom Futebol on X (over 4k followers) suggests he failed the medical tests. The club can't take risks with this kind of thing. Been burnt before. |  | |  |
| Morita to Hull on 15:59 - Jul 22 with 5195 views | burnbudgiesburn | Bit annoying, as would have saved us a wedge on fees. But clearly we weren't prepared to take a risk on his fitness for the wages/contract he wanted and Hull were. At least it'll give something for the twitter lads to bantz over I guess. Hope this has no knock on effect for Maeda completing his transfer. |  | |  |

I stand by it, whilst Jakirovic was obviously impressive last season and a large factor in their promotion, O'Neil was at just over a point per game in the prem at two clubs and then had a 48% winrate at Strasbourg in Ligue 1. |  |

I didn't really mean in the context of the town, I meant the distance to London. |  |

Alex Jones from the EADT did say on one video he had a history of muscle injuries so I suspect maybe that with the cost of his salary may be something we've decided against moving ahead with. [Post edited 22 Jul 16:03]

| Morita to Hull on 16:03 - Jul 22 with 4966 views | WolfieAtTheBack | I read it as he was recovering from injury hence he did not go with the Japan squad to the world cup. Could be a good swerve. |  | |  |
| Morita to Hull on 16:07 - Jul 22 with 4807 views | danchances22 | There was an account on X 2 days ago that reported that he failed a medical at Ipswich. Might be some truth in that |  | |  |

Does traffic in the middle of Hull grind to a halt if the local bridge over a nearby river closes due to high winds? That could have been on his mind. Another reason to build the northern bypass. [Post edited 22 Jul 16:11]

I think Celtic looking to replace Maeda with Hasseim Hassan; looked perfect for a counter-attacking team, which is likely to be us for much of next season. |  |

Quite possibly, he was injured! |  | |  |
