Cody Drameh is set to stay at Hull City this season after rejecting several offers to move, sources have told Football Insider.

The 24-year-old right-back wants to play in the Premier League and is determined to prove himself at the Tigers.

Numerous Championship sides have been interested in the defender, who is now in the final year of his contract.

On top of this, several Premier League sides are monitoring him long-term as they eye a potential free transfer next summer.

Drameh came off the bench on Saturday and impressed in Hull’s 2-0 victory against Manchester United.

The defender also played an important role in Hull’s promotion to the Premier League last season and made 22 appearances in the Championship.

How has Cody Drameh performed so far this season?

Drameh has no doubt had an impressive start to the 2026-27 campaign.

After making a big impact off the bench in the 2-0 victory against Man United, he was rewarded with a start against Stoke City in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday.

Here, he helped the Tigers secure a victory on penalties after a 1-1 draw, with the right-back playing the full game.

According to Fotmob on 26 August, Drameh completed 89 per cent of his passes, created one chance, completed both of his attempted dribbles, completed four tackles, made two clearances, made four recoveries and won seven out of nine aerial duels.

As a result, he was no doubt one of the best players on the field, and was key to Hull City progressing into the third round of the Carabao Cup.

What other business could Hull complete this summer?

Football Insider has exclusively revealed that Hull City are in advanced talks with John Egan over a new contract.

The 33-year-old's current contract is set to expire next summer, and work is ongoing to ensure he commits his long-term future to the club, as well as to dispel any interest.

Hull are keen to lock their star players down to new deals, and the centre-back is highly regarded at the club.

The experienced defender played a crucial role in Hull's promotion to the Premier League as he featured 42 times in the Championship last season.

However, it remains to be seen if he can use this experience to keep the club in the top-flight this campaign.
