Premiership Football Betting - Michael Owen Likely to Join Hull City

Irish bookmaker Paddy Power is offering 5/1 that Michael Owen plays for Hull City next season following confirmation he will leave relegated Newcastle United this summer.

Phil Brown's public courting of Owen over the weekend has put Hull in as second favourites to sign Owen in the bookie's betting behind 2/1 favourites Everton. Also in the running are Spurs at 6/1 with ManCity and Aston Villa both at 7/1.

Darren Haines, spokesman for Paddy Power, said: "Hull isn’t quite the destination Michael Owen’s advisors imagined when they sent out their glossy brochure but as they are the only club so far to have publicly expressed any serious interest they have to be a contender in the betting."
