Ambitious Hull City manager Phil Brown has talked up his side’s chances of achieving European qualification in the near future while visiting Singapore as a guest of the British High Commission. Having escaped relegation on the last day of the season, Brown feels that a push up the league to battle with the likes of big boys Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal is not an impossible dream.
Speaking to assembled press, the Tigers coach stated:
"A European place would be the ultimate aim, either through winning a trophy or by way of standing in the Premier League.
"How long that would take, I've got my personal ambitions. All I can say is that it will be in the near future."
"We're looking at proven Premier League players, players with history in the Premier League.
"There is money available and there's a lot of work to be done in attack and defence. Hopefully, the improvements will come in both penalty boxes."
