Liverpool star Andy Robertson is latest former Hull City star to have his say on Tom Huddlestone’s surprise return to the club.
Huddlestone has been out of action for the last 18 months but made his return on Saturday for the Tigers in a 1-0 friendly win over Scunthorpe United.
His return to the club he left four years ago was greeted with huge excitement among supporters, who were keen to see him remain at City for their upcoming Championship campaign which begins on Saturday week at Preston North End.
Anfield star Robertson, who played with the stylish midfielder at City, joined the likes of Ryan Mason, David Meyler, Chris Martin and Liam Ridgewell, while there were also comments from a number of other ex-footballers including Aaron Lennon and Joleon Lescott, while “announce Huddlestone” wrote former teammate Davies,
“Oh, Tommy Tommy” the ex-Tigers left-back wrote on Instagram, after the 34-year-old thanked City boss Grant McCann for giving him the chance to improve his fitness, having admitted the past few months had been difficult without a club.
City are open to the idea of handing the midfielder a deal if he can prove his fitness over the course of the next couple of weeks, with McCann aware of Huddlestone’s experience and the positive impact that could have on a largely youthful dressing room.
The ex-Tottenham and England international last played a competitive game for Derby County against City at Pride Park in mid-January last year, before leaving at the end of the 2019/20 campaign when his contract ended.
Huddlestone played 45 minutes at Glanford Park on Saturday and is expected to be involved this weekend when City face Sunderland at the Stadium of Light on Friday before a behind closed doors encounter with Manchester United’s Under-23s on Saturday lunchtime.
