Hull and Reading set to hand out raft of debuts at KCOM Stadium
Posted Friday, August 09, 2019 by PA
Hull manager Grant McCann has options to change his squad for the second Sky Bet Championship game of the season at home to Reading.
The Tigers lost 2-1 at Swansea and McCann could bring in some of his more recent summer signings against the Royals.
Hull fans will be pleased to see Jarrod Bowen and Kamil Grosicki did not leave during the transfer window but McCann could bring in the four players who moved to the KCOM Stadium on the final day of the transfer window.
McCann signed Leonardo Da Silva Lopes from Wigan, Bolton striker Josh Magennis, Leicester’s Callum Elder and also brought in Everton defender Matthew Pennington on a season-long loan. Markus Henriksen will not be involved after being told he can leave the club.
Reading manager Jose Gomes has also made a number of signings after seeing his side lose 3-1 on the opening day at home to Sheffield Wednesday.
During a busy end to the transfer window Reading signed forward George Puscas from Inter Milan for an undisclosed fee, midfielder Pele on a season-long loan from Monaco and goalkeeper Rafael on a three-year deal from Sampdoria.
The Royals have also brought in Lucas Joao from Sheffield Wednesday, Lucas Boye on loan from Torino and re-signed Liverpool midfielder Ovie Ejaria on a season-long loan deal.
Gomes could give a debut to a number of his summer signings including Michael Morrison who, along with knee injury victim Tom McIntyre, was an unused substitute against Wednesday.
