Hull City have completed the signing of Nigerian winger David Akintola on a two-year deal, making him the eighth player from Nigeria to feature for the club, Soccernet.ng reports .
Akintola joins compatriot and Super Eagles defender Semi Ajayi , who arrived earlier this summer.
Akintola follows in the footsteps of a distinguished list of Nigerians to have worn the Tigers' colours, starting with Austin 'Jay-Jay' Okocha , who signed from Qatar SC in 2007. The legendary playmaker helped Hull secure promotion to the Premier League in his only season at the club. Others include Seyi Olofinjana, Hope Akpan, Dele Adebola, Sone Aluko, Ola Aina , and now Ajayi.
