that Michael Dawson is ready to commit his future to Hull City, despite their relegation to the Championship.
The centre-back moved to the KC Stadium last summer, and played for them twenty-seven times last season, scoring his one and only goal in last month’s 1-0 win over Liverpool.
However, after taking just one point from the twelve available since that victory over Brendan Rodgers side they eventually succumbed to relegation along with Burnley and Queens Park Rangers.
A whole host of their big name players are expected to move on ahead the Championship kick off on August 8th, though Dawson is keen to honour the three year contract he penned with the Tigers last summer.
Prior to his move to Humberside, Dawson spent nine-and-a-half seasons with …

Premier League winner Marc Albrighton has signed a new contract with Leicester City.
The winger, who helped the Foxes to their incredible title triumph in 2015-16, will stay with the club until 2022, the Foxes confirmed on Friday.
Albrighton, 29, said he had no doubts about renewing his commitment to Leicester, for whom he scored their first Champions League goal.
It was totally straightforward, he told the club s website. Leicester offered me a deal and I was always going to sign it. I ve had some good times here and hopefully I can continue to do so.
When I first signed, I looked at the squad that was in the dressing room and the club itself in terms of its fanbase and what sort of club it was.
It was a family club back then and it s a family…
Arsenal have confirmed the arrival of United States goalkeeper Matt Turner from the New England Revolution.
The Revs announced in February a deal had been agreed with Arsenal for Turner, subject to the completion of a medical.
And the 28-year-old now heads to Emirates Stadium for a reported £7.5million ($9.2m) transfer fee, boosting Mikel Arteta s goalkeeping options.
Turner is likely to serve as back-up to Aaron Ramsdale, with Bernd Leno – the number one prior to the England international s arrival last season – linked with a move away from the London club.
The USMNT star arrives in England after an outstanding 2021 season, in which he was the MLS Goalkeeper of the Year and made the MLS Best XI as the Revs won the Supporters Shield.

Liverpool will face Atletico in Madrid tonight (Tuesday) in the third round of the Champions League group stages.
Following their encounter in the 2019-20 round of 16, Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp said he couldn t understand why Diego Simeone, his Atletico counterpart, set up his team the way he did (defensively) with the quality of the players at his disposal. With the two teams set to do battle again, his words from back then have found their way to the spotlight again.
Speaking at his press conference ahead of this match, Klopp elaborated on his words, saying that he personally doesn t like that style but pointing out that the things Atletico have achieved under Simeone (two La Liga titles, one Copa del Rey trophy, two Europa League trophies, two Champions League fina…
James Bree could leave Aston Villa for Luton Town in the summer transfer window, according to . It has been reported that the defender is in advanced talks with the Championship club, with Villa manager Dean Smith having given him the green light to leave Villa Park.
Bree joined Villa from Barnsley in January 2017 for a transfer fee of £3 million. The right-back has struggled to make an impact at Villa Park, and has been out on loan at Ipswich Town and Luton in recent years. The 22-year-old right-back has fallen down the pecking order at the Villans, and it is hard to see him break into the starting lineup anytime soon.
The youngster did well during his loan spell at Luton last season, and it would make sense for the 22-year-old to join the Hatters on a permanent contr…
Adam Lallana struck in the 95th minute to ensure Liverpool edged a nine-goal thriller by beating Norwich City 5-4 at Carrow Road.
Liverpool appeared to be on course to win 4-3 when James Milner put them ahead 15 minutes from time, only for Sebastien Bassong to equalise with a superb 20-yard drive two minutes into injury time.
However, substitute Lallana who had earlier set up Roberto Firmino to draw Liverpool level at 3-3 had other ideas, as his perfectly controlled left-footed volley bounced into the ground and over Declan Rudd to settle an incredible game and spark delirious Liverpool celebrations.
Liverpool s day started well as Firmino opened the scoring in the 18th minute after a crisp passing move, but their defensive frailties allowed Norwich back in.
Mauricio Pochettino said Chelsea could have Christopher Nkunku available as early as the week after the November international break as the summer signing’s recovery from a knee injury is progressing quicker than expected.
The 25-year-old, who was injured in a friendly against Borussia Dortmund during the club’s pre-season tour of the United States, had been expected to be out until at least December but that timescale has now been brought forward, raising the possibility he could make a long-awaited competitive debut when the team face Newcastle at St James’s Park on November 25.
The loss of Nkunku weeks after completing a £52million move from RB Leipzig was a significant blow to Pochettino’s preparations for the new campaign, particularly as he had been a stan…
Bruno Fernandes will wear the number eight shirt for Manchester United this season, while new signing Tyrell Malacia takes number 12 at Old Trafford.
Fernandes has donned the number 18 shirt for the Red Devils since joining from Sporting CP in January 2020, subsequently scoring 50 goals in 126 appearances across all competitions.
But the Portugal international has opted to switch to his favourite number, which he has tattooed on his right arm, after the jersey was vacated by Juan Mata following the Spaniard s departure from the club at the end of last season.
Fernandes will be seen in the number eight shirt for the first time during United s pre-season tour of Thailand, with the squad flying out to the Far East on Friday.
The midfielder becomes the …
