Hull City playmaker Scott Twine is set for crunch talks with Premier League side Burnley regarding his immediate future, as confirmed by journalist Alan Nixon via his Patreon account.
The 24-year-old is currently midway through his spell with Hull City but is the subject of interest from a series of other Championship clubs as the deadline to recall him creeps ever closer.
Twine has made 26 appearances for the Tigers in all competitions since arriving on loan from Burnley, scoring four goals and adding three assists in league action thus far.
Vincent Kompany’s side are believed to have a £5 million price tag on his head, with numerous sides interested. One of which is Liam Manning’s Bristol City, who has previously worked with Twine at MK Dons, where he managed 20 goals in 50 games during his final season with the football club before his big-money move.
Twine was scheduled to remain with Hull City until the end of the 2023/24 season but with the arrival of Liverpool’s Fabio Carvalho, there is increased pressure that he could be recalled and sent to another Championship side.
The playmaker was a product of Swindon Town’s youth setup, making 59 appearances whilst contributing to 12 goals. He’s also had loan stints with the likes of Newport County and Chippenham Town.
Hull City currently sit ninth in the Championship, a point outside of the playoff places and are full of attacking reinforcements heading into the second half of the season.

Playmaker Scott Twine has been a terrific addition for Hull City and has had several excellent spells with the likes of MK Dons and Swindon Town.
Bristol City are likely to want Twine but whether they could match the money involved remains to be seen, given there are likely to be other Championship sides keen to land him before Burnley lose the chance to recall him.
