Lazar Markovic to join Hull City

Liverpool attacker Lazar Markovic could seal a temporary deal to Hull City after he returned from his loan stint at Sporting.

The Serbian international largely failed to impress during his spell with the Primeira Liga giants, and this made them terminate his contract midway through the league campaign.

A report from The Liverpool Echo suggests that Markovic could be on the move once again with the Tigers being the latest suitors for his services.

Reds boss Jurgen Klopp is still not convinced of the player's abilities to adapt to Premier League football, and he will be content to offer him a short-term move to the KCOM Stadium to prove his credentials.

Markovic, now 22, has appeared just 34 times for Liverpool in all competitions since his £20m switch from Benfica in the summer of 2014.
