Hull City are delighted to announce the signing of Netherlands Under-21 striker Noah Ohio on loan from Belgian side Standard Liège.

The 21-year-old, who becomes the Tigers’ fifth January addition, will remain at the MKM Stadium until the conclusion of the 2023/24 Sky Bet Championship campaign.

The former Manchester United and Manchester City youngster has made 45 appearances for Les Rouches since joining the Belgian Pro League club in July 2022, scoring six goals.

The Almere-born forward has also enjoyed spells on the continent with German giants RB Leipzig, Dutch outfit Vitesse and Austria Wien, where he scored six times in 31 matches.

Ohio has netted five goals in six caps for his country at Under-21s level, having also represented the Netherlands at Under-15s, Under-16s and Under-19s, as well as playing for England Under-16s.

Head coach Liam Rosenior said: “Noah is someone we’ve watched for a long time and we’re excited to work with him.

“You need different types of strikers and Noah is a different profile to what we’ve already got: he’s quick, strong, can run in behind and holds the ball up well.

“He has outstanding athletic characteristics and massive potential. We believe he can help us in terms of our striking options at the top end of the pitch.

“Hopefully, he can have a massive impact on the rest of the season.”
