Jake Livermore has claimed that he expects to be returning to Hull City for the start of next season.

The midfielder has been on loan at the club from Tottenham Hotspur throughout the current campaign, but he has once again announced his intention to secure a permanent move to the club in the summer window.

When asked by reporters if he thought Sunday's game against Everton would be his last at the KC Stadium, Livermore replied: "I don't think so, no. Or I hope not. I've really enjoyed myself here.

"Whatever happens in the summer, whatever the two clubs agree, if they could sort something out that would be great.

"Of course I'd like to stay. I feel as though I owe the manager, his staff, my teammates and the fans a lot."

Livermore's last game of the season will be the FA Cup final against Arsenal next Saturday.
