Benjani set for Tigers switch
Hull City, 08:15, August 31, 2009 ,
Hull City are set to end striker Benjani Mwaruwari's frustrating stint at Manchester City with a beat-the-deadline swoop for him.
Tigers chief Phil Brown is still looking to bolster his squad with reinforcements, despite completing the signing of Sunderland right-back Paul McShane on a four-year deal for around £2million over the weekend.
And it looks like 31-year-old Benjani will be added to the forward options before Tuesday's 5pm deadline as he is set to undergo a medical at the KC Stadium on Monday.
The powerful former Portsmouth hitman has struggled to get anywhere near the City starting XI as boss Mark Hughes has spent over £100million on rebuilding the Eastlands squad with a myriad of players added to the forward line, including Emmanuel Adebayor and Carlos Tevez.
Therefore Benjani will look to secure more first-team action at the KC Stadium and get back to the form which saw him fire 19 goals in 70 appearances at Fratton Park before former City boss Sven Goran Eriksson took him to City two years ago.
