Premier League - Kilbane and Boa Morte for Hull

Manager Phil Brown revealed on Tuesday morning the club have agreed a fee with West Ham for Boa Morte and were hoping to reach a similar agreement with Wigan and speak to both midfielders.

Brown is keen to strengthen his squad after a run of just one win in 12 games and would like new players in place before Saturday's Barclays Premier League

Brown, whose side face Newcastle in an FA Cup third-round replay on Wednesday night, said: "We have made progress, things are ongoing.

"The clubs have agreed terms on Luis Boa Morte and we are trying to agree terms on Kevin Kilbane, on a personal front as well.

"They can't play any part in the Newcastle game but hopefully by Thursday or Friday they will bear some fruit.

"We said at the start of the season we wanted to flood the place with Premier League quality and both those players have it in abundance.
