Hull City playmaker Abdus Omur has again been linked with a move back to his native Turkey when the January transfer window opens for business on Wednesday.

Omur has struggled to make any kind of impact since joining City from Trabzonspor in January last year, and has not yet scored a goal in any of his 36 Championship appearances, though he does have three assists.

After being slowly integrated last season under Liam Rosenior, the 25-year-old playmaker has fallen down the pecking order under Tim Walter and then Ruben Selles, making just 19 appearances but just 11 starts in the opening 24 games of the campaign and didn't get off the bench on Sunday in the 1-0 win a Blackburn Rovers.

Reports in Turkey claim Super Lig clubs Basaksehir, Eyüpspor and Göztepe are all keen on signing Omur, though it's claimed he would prefer a move back to his former club, but that's been ruled out by Trabzonspor president Ertuğrul Doğan.

It's claimed that if Omur were to leave the MKM Stadium and head back to his homeland, he would prefer a switch to Başakşehir or Eyüpspor, owing to his preference to being based in Istanbul.

Hull Live understands, however, there is no truth to those reports at this stage, and Abdus is set to remain at the MKM Stadium post the transfer window closing.
