Hull City have announced the signing of Scott Twine on a season-long loan from Premier League side Burnley.
The 24-year-old midfielder has been highly sought after in this transfer window with many Championship teams showing interest, but the former Swindon Town youth product has opted for Liam Rosenior’s project.
Twine signed for his parent club Burnley in the summer of 2022 and despite missing an extended period of the 22/23 campaign through injury, still contributed with three goals in 18 appearances for Vincent Kompany’s all conquering Clarets.
Upon his arrival at the KCOM Stadium, Liam Rosenior said: “I’m absolutely delighted that Scott has joined us. We’ve beaten off competition from many top clubs in the Championship to secure his signature, based on our identity and style of play.
“This signing shows the ambition we have and that we want the best players we can get. He’s someone we’ve waited for but he’s worth the wait.
“He’s the perfect type of player I want in my team because he completely fits our philosophy. What I love about Scott is his ability to finish actions – to take shots, convert chances and he’s deadly from set-plays. His personality will completely fit into the group.
“He’s fantastic technically, can take the ball between lines, has got amazing movement, makes intelligent runs, presses well and likes to link and combine with other players.
“Scott can play in multiple positions and most importantly, he has end product – an area we identified as one we needed to improve on for this season.”
