Pancrate admits Hull offer

Paris St Germain star Fabrice Pancrate admitted that he had the opportunity to join Hull City. The 6 foot 1 striker was in discussions with the Tigers, but no deal was able to be completed.

"I had a chat with (PSG coach) Paul Le Guen as soon as I returned to training," the 28-year-old striker told Le Parisien.

"I understood at this moment they didn't rely on me. Anyway, I decided to prepare the best I could and I gave my best.

"And while I was speaking with an English club - Hull City - I was finally told that PSG wanted me to stay.

"They changed their mind and I'm delighted that my work was recognised."
