Hull City transfer latest: Championship club complete signing of Turkish international midfielder Ozan Tufan
Tufan, capped 65 times by his country, travelled to East Yorkshire earlier this week to discuss personal terms and undergo a medical - and he has now finalised his move to the club.
There is the option of a further year inserted into the deal.

Goalkeeper Nathan Baxter is also expected to re-join the club for a second loan spell from Chelsea, while the signing of Malian international midfielder Adama Traore - who was in Hull last weekend - is awaiting official confirmation.
Speaking about Tufan last weekend, City owner Acun Ilicali said: "Ozan, I have to give a special mention to him because he's been at Fenerbahce for many years and for me it's been a pleasure to see him giving everything for Fenerbahce and the national team, playing more than 60 times.
"He's a very high-quality player, he's god's gift to us and I'm sure he will give everything he has for us."

Hide AdTufan is hoping for a case of second time lucky in England after a frustrating loan spell at Watford last term, which was cut short by Roy Hodgson.
The Turk featured just nine times in 2021-22 for the Hornets, who endured a forgettable Premier League season, which ended in a return to the Championship.
