Club legend Ken Wagstaff is set to rejoin the organization—this time not on the pitch, but in a key senior role behind the scenes.

Speaking at a press briefing earlier today, Jakirović described the move as “a powerful step in reconnecting the club’s proud history with its future ambitions.” He added that Wagstaff’s deep understanding of the club’s culture and his winning mentality will be invaluable in mentoring younger players and supporting the club’s long-term vision.

Wagstaff, widely regarded as one of the greatest players in Hull City’s history, expressed his delight at the return. “Hull has always been home. To come back and contribute in a new way is truly special,” he said.

Fans have already taken to social media to celebrate the announcement, with many calling it a “full-circle moment” and a sign that the club is building something meaningful both on and off the field.

While details of his exact position are yet to be fully disclosed, sources close to the club suggest that Wagstaff will take on a senior advisory and ambassadorial role—working closely with coaching staff and club leadership.
