Hull City are set to sign Arsenal striker Chuba Akpom on a season-long loan deal.

Having lost a host of his key players this summer, Hull boss Steve Bruce is looking to ramp up his rebuilding process at the KC Stadium and is on the verge of securing the services of promising Gunners attacker Akpom.

19-year-old Akpom is set to soon arrive at Hull and Bruce has stated that he is confident of landing the services of the striker within the next few days.

"We've still got a little bit to do," Bruce told the Hull Daily Mail.

"I'm very confident that we've got Chuba."
