Hull City have started their season in the second tier in a rather disappointing fashion, having lost two of their four encounters, while winning and drawing the other two matches of their campaign so far. The Tigers have looked vulnerable in the midfield and have not been able to keep enough possession of the ball to themselves, which has led to their opponents getting the lion’s share of the ball and scoring goals against them in all the matches they have played so far in the Championship this season.
The man in charge at the KCOM Stadium, Leonid Slutsky has been looking forward to bring in a number of new players into the side from the fellow Championship as well as Premier League clubs. One such player is the Arsenal outcast Jon Toral, who has been playing on loan for the last three seasons in the Championship, La Liga and Scottish Premiership.
The young midfielder, as per reports, has already signed with the Championship club, having successfully gone through a medical. The move will surely help the Tigers in the forthcoming days of the season as they look to reshape their side and get some positive results under their belt in the forthcoming matches.
Known for his ability to move quickly from box to box and keep possession of the ball, Toral has been a part of the Arsenal Under 23 squad since 2013 but has been able to feature in only 22 matches for them so far. The Spanish international played a good amount of matches while in the Championship, with clubs like Brentford and Birmingham City using him on regular basis during his loan spells with them for 37 and 38 matches respectively.
The 22-year-old has been one of the most talented players of his country’s young generation and is believed to have a bright future ahead. The move to Hull City might be the right decision for the youngster as it will help him get the much-needed experience to feature on a regular basis on the pitch. Hopefully, he will get enough chance to play in the Championship for the Tigers in the forthcoming days.
Hull City are looking determined to become a part of the Premier League once again in the next season and are looking to strive hard in order to achieve that much-desired result throughout the present season. They are pretty sure that the inclusion of a player like Jon Toral can help them take a solid step in achieving that goal in the forthcoming days.
