HONG KONG -- Kevin Stewart has left Liverpool's squad in Hong Kong as he closes in on a move to Hull City, sources have told ESPN FC.

Stewart will now travel to Hull to discuss personal terms and undergo a medical at the Championship side in a deal that could be worth up to £8 million.

Despite signing a long-term contract in November, the midfielder was widely expected to depart Anfield this summer, having made just three first-team appearances since penning his new deal.

Liverpool resisted offers for the 23-year-old in January, but did acknowledge that there would a lack of opportunities in the future, with Jordan Henderson and Emre Can ahead of him in the defensive-midfield pecking order.
