Ryan Taylor joins Hull City

Former Newcastle United defender Ryan Taylor has sealed a move to Championship side Hull City for a Bosman fee.

Taylor was released by the Magpies earlier in the summer, after the club gave up on the player's injury troubles in recent seasons.

The 30-year-old full-back had been training with the Tigers in recent weeks, and it has now been confirmed that he will link up with the Yorkshire outfit on a one-year contract.

Furthermore, Hull City have also signed up midfielder Sam Clucas from Chesterfield for an undisclosed fee.
