ONES TO WATCH
Matt Ingram
Ingram joined Hull ahead of the 2019/20 season, putting pen-to-paper on a three-year contract, with the option of a further year. He made his debut in the Club’s 3-0 away Carabao Cup win over Tranmere Rovers in August 2019. The goalkeeper’s break out season came the following campaign, seeing him make 38 league appearances and keep 19 clean sheets in the process. So far this season, the 27-year-old has started all 11 games and kept three clean sheets.
Keane Lewis-Potter
Having been fast-tracked through the Tigers’ Academy, Lewis-Potter signed his first professional contract in February 2018, shortly after his 17th birthday. His breakout campaign came in 2019/20, where he became the first Hull-born player to score for the Tigers at the MKM Stadium in almost nine years, finding the back of the net in the Club’s 3-0 victory over Birmingham City in 2019. The 2021/22 season has seen the 20-year-old bag two goals and three assists in 11 starts so far.
Jacob Greaves
The 21-year-old joined Hull as an eight-year-old, progressing through the Academy ranks to sign his first professional deal in April 2019. Following a loan spell with Cheltenham Town for the 2019/20 season, October 2020 saw the defender make his league debut for the Tigers in a 3-0 win away to Rochdale. Last season saw Graves secure his place in Hull’s First Team, making 39 starts. So far this campaign, he’s started all 11 league games for the Tigers.
