Hull City Sign Senegalese Midfielder Diame

Hull City have signed central midfielder Mohamed Diame from West Ham for an undisclosed fee.

The Senegalese international has signed the dotted lines on a three-year deal at the KC Stadium.

Diame, who has 20 caps at full international level, has reportedly cost the ‘Tigers’ £3.5m.

He moved to England to play for Wigan Athletic in 2009 after an impressive season with Spanish side Rayo Vallecano.


Diame joined West Ham in 2012, at the end of his contract with the Latics.
