Tigers to Pounce on Michael Owen?

By: Matt | June 23rd, 2009

Hull in for Owen

It has been reported that Hull City will enter into talks with Michael Owen in an attempt to bring the ex-Liverpool and England striker to the KC. While he is still under contract with Newcastle until the 30th of June, Paul Duffen and Phil Brown have made it quite clear they are interested.

His 100k a week wages may be another story, but we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it. Since its unlikely Owen will make any decision before the 30th, there will surely be a number of other clubs interested, but the Tigers are the first club to come out and publicly state their desire to bring him to the KC.

So aside from all the shenanigans with his 32 page brochure thingy (which is fairly ridiculous), is this a good decision on the Tigers part?

I for one would much prefer a player like Frazier Campbell, younger, proven goal scorer with the club, doesn’t seem to be overly injury prone. Can Hull really risk paying Owen and Bullard massive wages for a potentially minimal return (at least on recent history)? If Owen would agree to a pay as you play deal, then fantastic, but I don’t think thats what his advisors are really after.

So sound off, should Hull sign Michael Owen?
