Tigers tempted to accept Boaz bid

Cash-strapped Hull City have hinted they will accept West Brom's £1.5million offer for long-serving keeper Boaz Myhill.[LNB] The Baggies are keen to bring in cover for Scott Carson and see the 27-year-old, who impressed for the Tigers last season, as the ideal recruit.[LNB]City are thought to be around £34million in debt and head of football operations Adam Pearson admits their financial circumstances may force their hand.[LNB]Pearson knows Matt Duke is more than a capable replacement between the sticks, although they would look to strengthen should Myhill depart.[LNB]"The situation is we have had an offer in," Pearson told the East Riding Mail.[LNB]"With the position the club is in, we obviously have to consider every offer. We have also got a good keeper already on the staff in Matt Duke.[LNB]"Obviously we would need to replace Boaz but the position with the club, and the fact we owe a lot of money to other clubs, puts us under some pressure to raise cash this summer.[LNB]"All we have raised so far is the cash off the two Wolves moves so it puts you under pressure to look at these deals carefully."
