New Hull City striker Yannick Sagbo has admitted that he cannot wait to get started at the club following his summer move to the KC Stadium.

The Ivory Coast international completed a switch from French side Evian TG on Friday in a deal reported to have cost the Tigers roughly £3m.

Sagbo, who is Hull's seventh signing of the transfer window, is eager to prove his worth in the Premier League.

"I am so happy to have signed for Hull City, and I am very grateful for the opportunity," Sagbo told his new club's official website.

"I can't wait to get going, and I look forward to meeting my new team-mates this weekend. I want to show the coaches and the fans what I'm all about, but not just with my physical presence.

"I also hope that my mobility and technical skills can add to what is already a good footballing team."

Sagbo signed a two-year deal with Hull.
