Mohamed Diame has revealed that he is desperate to keep Hull City in the Premier League after battling back from a knee injury.

Only goal difference is keeping Hull out of the bottom three with six games remaining, and Diame is hopeful of making a difference following four months on the sidelines.

"This injury has killed a vital bit of my season. It has been so frustrating for me not to be able to help the team for such a long time," the 27-year-old is quoted as saying by The Mirror.

"But I can promise that I'll be doing everything I can to help this team stay in the Premier League."

Diame could be back in the starting lineup against Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon.
