Hull City have reportedly set their sights on Sheffield Wednesday's centre-back Tom Lees and could make a move for the defender in January.

Lees is attracting the eye of several Premier League clubs with his performances for the Owls, with Steve Bruce looking to add to his defensive options.

The 24-year-old only completed his move to the Championship club in the summer from Leeds United, but Bruce believes that the player is ready to make the step up to the Premier League, according to Goal.com.

The Tigers could make a player-plus-cash offer to Wednesday for Lees's services but it is reported that Burnley are another club that could be in the hunt for the defender.
