Richards no link with Hull

Kazim-Richards bagged only one goal for the Blades in his one year stay at the Lane. That was a superbly curler past Jussi Jaaskelainen in the Bolton goal in a 2:2 draw.

Hull City chairman Phil Duffen confirmed:" There's nothing in it," He told BBC Radio Humberside.

"His name has not been mentioned by the manager or the scouting staff." Kazim-Richards is currently playing his football in the Turkcell Süper Lig for Fenerbahce and is taking part in the Euro 2008 Championships for Turkey in Austria and Switzerland.

Turkey have only just made it through to the knockout stages of the tournament.
