HULL CITY have confirmed that they have offered fresh terms to defender Angus MacDonald - while announcing the release a quartet of players in the wake of relegation to League One.

Midfielders Kevin Stewart and Jon Toral will leave the club alongside young defender Robbie McKenzie and back-up goalkeeper Will Mannion.

Last month, Stewart, Toral, McKenzie and MacDonald - whose contracts were due to expire at the end of June - all agreed short-term extensions to remain at the club for the rest of the elongated season.

But only ex-Barnsley centre-half and MacDonald has been tabled with a new deal.

MacDonald made his first-team comeback after a battle with bowel cancer last month.

The 27-year-old had 22 months away from the Tigers first team, fighting for his professional career following two major health scares.

The one-time Torquay United player first had to overcome a blood clot found in his calf early last season before he was then diagnosed with bowel cancer last August.

George Long, Ryan Tafazolli, Jordy de Wijs, Reece Burke, David Milinkovic, Daniel Batty, Tom Eaves, Matt Ingram, George Honeyman, Brandon Fleming, Callum Elder, Josh Magennis, Keane Lewis-Potter, Leo Da Silva Lopes, Martin Samuelsen, Mallik Wilks, James Scott and Festus Arthur are all under contract for the 2020-21 season.
