Zola to Hull City?

It is reported that Hull City are close to appointing Gianfranco Zola as their new manager.

The 50-year-old has previously enjoyed spells in charge of West Ham United, Watford and Cagliari but has been without a club since his departure from Qatari side Al-Ahli.

The newly-promoted Premier League club have been looking for a new boss since the resignation of Steve Bruce, who led them to Championship play-off success last season.
