A report claims that Hull City are trying to sign Portuguese attacker Nani from Valencia on transfer deadline day.

Hull City could reportedly pull off a surprise deadline-day move for Valencia attacker Nani.

Nani, 30, joined Valencia from Fenerbahce last summer, but has only scored twice in 15 league appearances during a disappointing 2016-17 campaign in Spanish football.

The Portuguese is believed to still share a close relationship with recently-appointed Hull boss Marco Silva after the two were together for a year at Sporting Lisbon in the 2014-15 campaign.

According to the Daily Mail, Premier League strugglers Hull have contacted Valencia over a move for the former Manchester United winger and will test Los Che's resolve with a bid for the Euro 2016 winner.

Nani, who is the fourth most-capped player in Portugal's history, won four Premier League titles and one Champions League during his eight years with Man United.
