HULL City have been dealt a further blow this afternoon as on-loan winger Ahmed Elmohamady has been recalled by parent club Sunderland.

The 25-year-old has been a huge hit at the KC Stadium since being brought in by manager Steve Bruce in August.

    Ahmed Elmohamady has played 25 games for Hull City in the Championship.

He has played 25 games in the Championship, playing a key role in the Tigers’ 3-5-2 formation, which has helped them climb to 2nd in the Championship.

Bruce has previously ruled out the possibility of signing the Egyptian on a permanent deal during the January transfer window.

However, the Mail understands City have not given up hope of the player returning to the KC later in the month, following further talks with the Black Cats.

The news is a second blow to City after striker Sone Aluko was ruled out for up to eight weeks with an Achilles injury.

It is likely to increase Bruce’s activity in the transfer market, having already targeted Sunderland striker Fraizer Campbell, and a return for goalkeeper David Stockdale from Fulham.

    “Ok Strummer61, just that I try to stay relatively neutral on here, I just love conspiracy theories, the problem we have on here is that, nobody knows out and its mostly guess work anyway, but all in all we all have just the Tigers at heart.

    UTT”

    “More a generalisation of the threads in general Salwa...Although some of it was in reference to your Making enemies,causing trouble comment,it most certainly wasn't all aimed at you.

    I respect your opinion(said that yesterday) and let's face it you've as much right to an opinion as I have and to be honest it's something of a rarity reading opinion on here anymore.....I'm certainly not spitting the dummy out I'm a bit more laid-back than that.

    No fall out from my side mate.”

    “Hahahahahaha strummer61 calm down calm down, I suspect that your post was aimed at me!! mine was an opinion like all other posters or am I exempt from opinion, I have always supprted the Allems and Steve Bruce, do your homework and look back over my posts, I question opinion just like you do but I have never insulted people for having a different opinion from me, unless they shoot first, sounds like I wasn't the only one "spitting his dummy out" on this thread.

    UTT”

    “I agree with Hcafcscarb as well..This is cyberspace,this is about opinion and just to add my own slant on it,it's a well known fact that some people don't like their theories being questioned and do in fact 'spit their dummies out'.

    Creating trouble and enemies(LOL,pathetic)isn't part of my make up and neither in my opinion is it part of 'Scarbs'(surely he has the right to defend the Allams and Steve Bruce whenever he sees fit,others on here take greater pleasure in trying to destroy the Club and the hard work going on in the background).I think it's fair to say that some of us come on seeking debate,opinion,transfer rumours and gossip surrounding our club.Sadly most of it is met by persistent conspiracy theorists,red arrows and silence when you ask for some sort of evidence to the fiction herein.

    Of course Steve Bruce bought Meyler and Brady after they were withdrawn back to their parent Clubs,they're obviously part of his masterplan and we should rejoice in the fact that they're our players now and are in fact an asset at our Club,OR,should we start bubbling,crying foul play and intimating that Steve Bruce is a sitting target for the bigger Clubs who wish rid of their dross?

    Steve Bruce is nobody's fool and if you honestly think that he(Steve Bruce)is gonna get had over a bonnet (A Merlinism)by Martin O'Neill then you insult not only his intelligence but those of us who have supported him from day one!!!”

    “There is only one reason why Martin O'Neill has recalled Elmohamady and thats to force Hull City to buy him now., The mackems need the cash to buy there own targets. Its not an issue at the moment. With saturdays game only rated as 50/50 to go ahead he may not even be missed. We have enough in the squad to cope for now. We did ok without Aluko in december for those who have forgotten already. I would expect Elmohamady to be back before the Millwall away game on saturday 2nd February. UTT.”

    “HCAFCscab, why was that a stupid comment???? is it untrue what happened with Meyler??? Funny I was just listening to Radio Blunderside, they had a Sunderland reporter on saying that he couldn't understand why MO had recalled Elmo, they had plety of cover on the right of midfield, thier only concern is rightback, but Elmo isn't a right back, not so stupid a comment eh

    UTT”

    “Rightly so but players do take pay cuts at the later stage of their careers. He wont be on anything near that. If he is Sunderland directors have lost the plot because he isnt playing...
    Looks like Cardiff are trying to Hi jack Campbell so last chancr Saloon could get us Saha on loan to which I we'd only have to pay a percentage of wages looking at around 50%, I personally think he is only on about 35k so we'd be paying around 15-20k of his wages.

    Hey ho thats just my summary on Saha.”

    “Just for the record, Saha is 34, is being released by Sunderland and nobody is going to pay him anywhere near 60,000 pounds a week again. As Mattlill90 says, there are plenty of strikers out there, the trick is signing the right one at the right price and I'm confident that SB will figure something out in the next two weeks.”

    “I had a dream last night (still in London) and i have a feeling that when you discover the striker we've got coming on loan you'll be pleased with the replacement (in terms of loans). There is a chance that elmo will return, if a permanent move can be agreed.”
