Nigeria international Sone Aluko has reportedly started contract extension negotiations with English Premier League campaigners Hull City , as the club hope to offer him a long term deal.

“We’re talking to him and his advisors and seeing them on Monday. Hopefully, we can get something sorted.

 “We’re not too advanced but we’re talking. We’re underway but as is normal with these things they take a bit of time.

“It’s important for a player these days to get the right deal. They don’t just come along and sign what’s put in front of them.

“He’ll want certain reassurances. It’s not always just about money. He’s an intelligent boy, he’s not your normal footballer. He’s a bright lad,” Bruce told the Mail.

Sone Aluko joined Hull City 14 months ago on a free transfer from Glasgow Rangers.
