Hull City manager Phil Brown has revealed his interest in signing Juninho, but has warned the veteran Brazilian that he won't break the bank to land him.

The 34-year-old former Middlesbrough playmaker has held talks with the Tigers about a possible free transfer return to England, but Brown has hinted the two parties are poles apart when it comes to reaching an agreement.

"It will eventually come down to finances and we are not going to break the bank and the spirit of the group for any one player," he told the Hull Daily Mail.

"We don't want to destroy the team spirit we manufactured and nurtured last season ahead of our onslaught on the Championship this season."
