Rumour Mill: Hull compete with Real for Pennant

Last updated : 02 January 2009 By Adam Bryant
As the January transfer window opens there's plenty of big names being linked with new clubs, but very little for Liverpool fans to get excited about. Until now, that is.

Jermaine Pennant was linked with a move to Real Madrid, but talks appear to have stalled. Now Hull City are the latest club linked with the winger - a more realistic transfer and one which may actually happen.

No quotes, confirmations or denials as yet, but watch this space.
