Hull re-sign Leeds forward Gelhardt on loan

Forward Joe Gelhardt has returned to Hull City on a season-long loan from Leeds United.

The 23-year-old moved to the MKM Stadium on loan during the second half of last season, finishing as the Tigers' joint-second top scorer with five goals in his 20 appearances as City secured Championship survival on the final day of the campaign.

Gelhardt began with a spectacular half-volley on his debut against Queens Park Rangers at home and netted vital goals in home wins over Plymouth, Oxford United and Preston.

After coming through the ranks at Wigan, the former England youth international moved to Elland Road in August 2020 and has made 57 appearances for the Whites, 35 of them in the Premier League.
