Abel Hernandez thanks Hull City fans for their "great support and affection" after confirming that he will not be signing a new contract.

Abel Hernandez has confirmed that he will leave Championship side Hull City this summer after turning down the offer of a bumper new contract.

The Uruguay international is due to become a free agent later this month and has already been inundated with offers, including one from Russian giants CSKA Moscow.

Hull had hoped to tempt Hernandez into putting pen to paper on fresh terms, but the 27-year-old has decided that the time is right to bring an end to his four-year stay on Humberside.

A Hull statement read: "Although the offer made to Hernandez exceeded what the club would normally offer at Championship level, the striker will now look to make a fresh start elsewhere. We would like to wish him well for the future."

Hernandez then took to Instagram to say: "Thank you to all the fans of Hull for these four beautiful years, in which they have given me all the affection, during good times and also during the not-so-good ones.

"You never stopped showing me your great support and affection, and I am deeply grateful."

I am writing to say THANK YOU to all the fans of Hull for these 4 beautiful years, in which they have given me all the affection, during good times and also during the not-so-good ones. You never stopped showing me your great support and affection, and I am deeply grateful. I will never forget the matches in which you singed my name, this is something that I will have forever in my heart. This is why you deserve to know, directly from me, that my time in Hull is now over, everything comes to an end and today I have to say goodbye. Sometimes a fair agreement is not reached, and football is like that. I wish you all the best for the next year, I truly that you can soon return to Premier Ligue because the club deserves it! Thanks to this team, that has given me so many blessings. I want you to know that I love you so much and that you will always be in my heart. Thank you, thank you very much from the bottom of my heart once again for everything you have given me during these four unforgettable years. ---- Quería agradecerles a los hinchas de Hull por estos 4 hermosos años que me han dado, llenos de cariño, con momentos buenos y no tan buenos, pero que nunca dejaron de demostrarme su gran apoyo. Nunca voy a olvidar los partidos en los cuales coreaban mi nombre, esto es algo que va a quedar para siempre guardado en mi corazón. Creo que se merecen saber de mi parte, que mi ciclo en Hull se terminó, todo llega a su final y hoy me toca despedirme. A veces no se llega a un acuerdo ideal, pero el fútbol es así. Les deseo lo mejor en el próximo año, que pronto puedan volver a la Premier Ligue porque el club se lo merece! Gracias a este cuadro que me ha llenado de tantas alegrías. Quiero decirles que los quiero mucho y que siempre van a estar en mi corazón y gracias, muchas gracias nuevamente por todo lo que me han brindado en estos cuatro años inolvidables.
