Elmohamady extends Hull stay
Ahmed Elmohamady has signed a new three-year contract with Hull City following their promotion to the Premier League.
Premier League new boys Hull City have agreed a three-year extension with Ahmed Elmohamady that will see the Egyptian remain at the club until 2019.
Elmohamady - whose previous contract was set to expire at the end of the month – has made over 180 appearances for Hull since arriving in 2012, including 99 consecutive league starts.
He was part of Steve Bruce's promotion-winning side last season as the Tigers beat Sheffield Wednesday in the play-off final to secure an immediate return to the top flight.
The promotion was Elmohamady's second with the club and he hopes they can rise to the challenge ahead of them in the Premier League.
