Hull City set to make move for World Cup player – Premier League move would be a dream

**[Hull City](https://sportwitness.co.uk/hull-city/) are set to make an offer for Mjällby’s Elliot Stroud, entering the battle in an attempt to beat Genoa to a deal.**

[Expressen report](https://www.expressen.se/sport/fotboll/allsvenskan/premier-league-klubb-kommer-buda-pa-stroud/) that the 24-year-old finds himself in Hull’s sights after playing for Australia at the World Cup this summer.

**Hull make their move**

------------------------

The newspaper reports that the 24-year-old could be set for a ‘dream move’ to the Premier League this summer, with British sources reporting that Hull City are set to make a bid in the near future.

Elliot Stroud played for Sweden at the World Cup this summer. The Mjällby winger started the final group stage against Japan and in the round of 16 against France.

His future has been the subject of debate for months. Reports in Sweden and Italy have made it clear that Serie A club Genoa are keen on his signature.

However, at this moment in time, no deal has been finalised. And that could mean, rather than moving to Italy, Stroud could be set for a dream move to England and the Premier League.

**Hull trying to do deal**

--------------------------

Expressen report, via several British sources, that Premier League newcomers Hull City are trying to sign Elliot Stroud this summer. The Tigers are set to make an offer shortly.

Hull are believe to rate the winger highly. But it remains to be seen how talks will progress in the coming weeks. They are just one of several British clubs who are interested in him.

The Italy option has cooled off for the time being, and that has opened the door for Hull and others to potentially make their move. A switch to the Premier League would be a ‘dream move’ for the player at this point in his career.

He’s been one of the best players in Sweden in the last few years. He’s won the title and Swedish cup with Mjällby, and now the Premier League is calling.
