There has been growing speculation surrounding the future of Justin Njinmah, with reports suggesting a move could be on the cards for the Werder Bremen forward this summer.

England has been touted as a possible next step for the 25-year-old, and newly-promoted Hull City have now become the first Premier League club to publicly acknowledge their interest in the forward.

Speaking to Hull Live, Hull City owner Acun Ilıcalı confirmed that Njinmah is among the players being considered by the Tigers.

“Yes,” Ilıcalı admitted when asked if Hull are interested in the forward.

“He's also a winger and a striker. He is one of the players on our list, but of course we have many options.

“We have 20 options at the moment. For example, I don't want to mention the name, but one big club invited us to a meeting and asked whether we would be interested in some of their players," he added.

Njinmah joined Werder Bremen in 2022 and has since made 88 appearances for the Bundesliga club, scoring 14 goals and providing six assists.
