Phelan targets six new faces before transfer deadline

Nobody has arrived thus far, but six new players will join Hull City before Wednesday's deadline if Mike Phelan has his way.

Mike Phelan recognises Hull City need as many players as possible before the close of the transfer window and says there could be six arrivals before Wednesday's deadline.

Newly promoted Hull's prospects appeared bleak at the start of the season as manager Steve Bruce resigned and a crippling injury crisis left them with just 13 fit senior players.

But interim manager Phelan has overseen an excellent start to the campaign with Premier League wins over Leicester City and Swansea City being followed by a second-round triumph against Exeter City in the EFL Cup.
