Hull City manager Steve Bruce says that he wants Isaac Hayden to stay with the Tigers until the end of the season.
The 20-year-old is currently halfway through his season-long loan from Arsenal, and there has been talk of him returning to the Emirates and possibly going on loan to another club.
There were reports in the Hull Daily Mail linking him with a move to Fulham but that seemed to get shelved when they hired Slavisa Jokanovic.
Hayden hasn’t had the amount of first-team action that both he and Arsenal would have liked at Hull. He’s only made nine league appearances this season, and only three of those have come as a starter. In fact, his last three league appearances for the Tigers have only been over a combined 12 minutes as he has been coming on as a late substitute.
Despite his apparent reluctance to play Hayden, Bruce told Sky Sports that he hopes the youngster will stay at his club for the remainder of the season.
There’s a chance [that he goes back to Arsenal], but I hope not. If I’ve got anything to do with it he will stay because he’s the type that if he gets into the team he could stay there. I think we just have to weigh up the options for him.
The first thing is he is a loan player so you have to be thankful that he’s here, that’s he’s come and wanted to play for us. So we have to be right by him.
