\n Hull City striker Hugh Parker is expected to go out on loan in January, according to reports from transfer correspondent Pete O’Rourke – with EFL clubs keen on signing him on for the remainder of the season.\n<\/p>\n
\n The 19-year-old Irish forward signed for the Tigers academy earlier this year from the University College Dublin after impressing in the League of Ireland First Division. So far this season he has scored three goals and recorded two assists in the U21s Premier League Cup.\n<\/p>\n
\n He also featured in the U21s Hull City meeting with Reading U21 were the Royals won 2-0.\n<\/p>\n
\n Parker, who has been named on the bench for the Tigers\u2019 first-team is the top scorer for the club\u2019s U21s.\n<\/p>\n
\n The then 18-year-old penned a two-and-a-half year deal with Hull City in February, with the club holding the option of a further year.\n<\/p>\n
\n Hull City’s lead professional development phase coach Conor Sellars said at the time of his signing: “We\u2019re delighted to sign Hugh. He was invited to train with the Under-21s and immediately caught the attention of the staff with his performances.\n<\/p>\n
\n “Having gained first-team experience at UCD and represented the Irish youth national team, he brings valuable experience. He\u2019s a strong, physical centre forward with excellent finishing ability, and we\u2019re excited to start working with him.\n<\/p>\n
\n “Our goal is to support his development and help him reach his full potential through hard work and dedication. I\u2019d also like to thank Richard (Naylor) and Emyr (Humphreys) for their efforts in securing his signing, and the Under-21s staff will be focused on helping him improve in all areas.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hull City striker Hugh Parker is expected to go out on loan in January, according to reports from…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":62504,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[128,130,129],"class_list":{"0":"post-62503","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-reading","8":"tag-reading-city","9":"tag-reading-city-headlines","10":"tag-reading-city-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62503","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=62503"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62503\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/62504"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=62503"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=62503"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=62503"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
