Hull City transfer news: Assist specialist back for second spell in Yorkshire
Sorba Thomas has returned to Yorkshire with Hull City.
The former Huddersfield Town winger signed after Tuesday's 11pm deadline, which was a frantic one even by the Tigers' standards.
He has penned a four-year contract.
Hull are expected to pay Stoke City around £10m for the Wales winger, who effectively replaces Saturday's matchwinner Liam Millar in the squad after the Canadian was allowed to join Birmingham City on loan.
Huddersfield picked 27-year-old Thomas up from Boreham Wood where he was a team-mate of Iliman Ndiaye, one of the bigger Premier League movers of deadline day as he swapped Everton for Manchester City.
He was a key part of the Terriers team which reached the Championship play-off final in 2022. He had loan spells at Blackburn Rovers (2023) and Nice in 2024-25 before moving permanently to Stoke City.
Thomas was named in last season's Championship team of the year after a campaign which featured ten goals and 13 assists.
He has 27 Wales caps, and played for them at the Qatar World Cup.
