Steve Bruce hints at Rio Ferdinand interest

Hull City manager Steve Bruce hints that he would be interested in signing Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand.

Hull City manager Steve Bruce has suggested that he could make a move to sign Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand.

Ferdinand revealed on Monday that he would be leaving Old Trafford after 12 years with the club. With the 35-year-old expected to receive a flurry of offers in the summer, Bruce has hinted that he could try to bring the former England international to the KC Stadium.

The 53-year-old is quoted by the Daily Mail as saying: "We've cast an eye on a few things. Rio has been a wonderful player. Who knows? If he fancies a game...?

"We've got Arsenal at Wembley on Saturday, so let me get over the weekend first, then I'll see if we'll give him a call."

The Tigers can offer Ferdinand the opportunity of Europa League football next season after reaching this season's FA Cup final.
