Hull City boss Sergej Jakirovic has revealed he would like to sign Bosnia and Herzegovina midfielder Amir Hadziahmetovic on loan from Besiktas.

The Tigers are prevented from making permanent signings because of an English Football League embargo.

But they can bring in loan players and Jakirovic admits he wants Hadziahmetovic.

"Yeah, of course, we need such a profile," he told BBC Radio Humberside. "He can improve this group for sure, number six or number eight.

"He has big experience. He's almost 10 years in Turkey. That shows his quality.

"Besiktas have brought some players in and he's searching where he can play. We will try to close this deal."
