Hull City have completed the signing of midfielder Tom Huddlestone from Tottenham, according to Sky sources.
The 26-year-old has moved north to the KC Stadium after struggling to secure a regular starting place for Spurs under Andre Villas-Boas.
Huddlestone, who has made four appearances for England, played 209 games in all competitions for Tottenham after joining them from Derby in 2005 and scored 15 goals.
He is likely to be followed to Hull by fellow Spurs midfielder Jake Livermore, who is poised for a loan move in the next 24 hours.

yes good luck to him. Think he has some great attributes but he is much too slow and cant challenge. I hope he does well but I don't think hes a good signing for a side battling against relegation. Anything over £5m is a good sale. Means we get capoue for approx. 3-4m

I see the skysports website says that he is likely to be followed by Livermore on loan. Good work spurs. Now lets get 3.5m for parker, ship out townsend for 5m (controversial I know but I don't think hes good enough) and adebayor for 6m and bring in lamela for 25m

Fantastic technique and passing but was far too immobile in my opinion. We have moved on, good luck though Thomas.

Been with us a long time and never quite fulfilled that potential. Great passer of the ball, but struggled off it.

Wish him all the best at Hull.

good luck to him. Got some important goals for us, beauty vs bolton I think it was 1-0.

Great range of passing & hope he does well there.

At least he'll have more chance of getting a haircut with them. Best of luck Hudd.

Top player, almost unique passing ability and did well for us. The 1st season we came 4th he was excellent alongside Modric.

Never recovered from that bad ankle injury (against Everton from memory) when he smashed the bottom of a defender's boot.
Good luck to him, hope he does well - a lovely player to watch.

He was a great signing considering that we only paid £600k for him

Amazing passer but needed a new challenge and I imagine the fee for him isn't too shabby.

Bet he scores on his debut....

Farewell Hudd.

He did some truly amazing things with the ball in his 9 years at Spurs.

I don't think he ever recovered from his ankle injuries which kept him out for nearly two years straight.

Because of that, I don't think Hull have gotten value for money.

Hopefully I'm wrong and Tommy gets his mojo back and his hair cut soon.

Really good buisness if they can bring in both Livermore and Huddlestone not only for them but for us aswell. Hudd is one we need to get off the books and if we can send Livermore there to get regular games and develop aswell we've done mighty good buisness. :)
