Hull City approach representatives of Reims winger Keito Nakamura
The newly promoted English club has initiated contact regarding the Japanese international, though a deal remains unconfirmed.
Hull City have contacted the representatives of Japanese international Keito Nakamura regarding a potential transfer from Ligue 2 club Stade de Reims. The move comes as the transfer window nears its close, with intermediaries pushing for the signing of the 26-year-old winger.
According to reports from Foot Mercato, the English club has already opened lines of communication with the player’s agents with a view to securing a deal. The publication suggests Hull City may be a potential destination for the Japan international, although a switch to the Premier League has yet to take form.
The situation at Stade de Reims has been marked by uncertainty following their relegation from Ligue 1. Nakamura excelled in the top flight with the club before dropping down to Ligue 2, where Reims failed to earn promotion at the first attempt. Despite the club’s struggles, the winger showcased his talent on the global stage at the FIFA World Cup with Japan.
Intermediaries are attempting to push the signing of Nakamura while Hull City continue to pursue other targets, including Yeremay Hernandez. The dual pursuit of players highlights the squad-building pressures facing the newly promoted side as they seek to strengthen their ranks before the window shuts.
It remains unclear if a transfer will be completed before the deadline. The report relies on a single source and intermediary claims rather than confirmed statements from the clubs, leaving the status of the negotiation open to speculation.
