Hull City Eye Man Utd Goalkeeper Vitek

Hull City has emerged as a contender to sign Manchester United goalkeeper Radek Vitek, as the newly promoted club seeks to bolster its roster for the upcoming Premier League season. Reports indicate that Hull City is among several top-flight clubs monitoring the young Czech talent, with other newly promoted sides like Coventry City and Ipswich Town also expressing interest.

Vitek's performances during a loan spell with Bristol City, where he recorded 12 clean sheets in 41 Championship matches, have significantly raised his profile. The 22-year-old goalkeeper is reportedly seeking a guaranteed starting role and is unwilling to remain at Manchester United as a backup. Consequently, United is open to a permanent transfer or potentially a loan deal, provided Vitek signs a contract extension.

Hull City's goalkeeping recruitment efforts extend beyond Vitek, as they have also initiated discussions for Lukas Hornicek and inquired about Alexander Nubel. This suggests a strategy to secure two goalkeepers to ensure depth and competition for the demanding Premier League campaign.
