Manchester United striker Will Keane is reportedly close to completing a £1m move to Hull City.

Manchester United forward Will Keane is reportedly closing in on a move to Hull City.

The 23-year-old made his senior debut at Old Trafford in December 2011, but since then, struggled to cement a regular spot in the first team.

Keane has experienced several loan spells during his time at United - playing for Wigan Athletic, Queens Park Rangers, Sheffield Wednesday and Preston North End.

According to the Hull Daily Mail, the striker's switch to the KC Stadium will be a permanent one after the Tigers lodged a £1m bid.

The report adds that Keane wants to make the transfer to Hull, whose caretaker manager Mike Phelan worked with the striker during his time at United.
