Hull manager Phil Brown is in talks with Chelsea over an ambitious move to sign Peru striker Claudio Pizarro.
Pizarro, 29, has already been linked with Stoke and River Plate after a disappointing debut campaign at Stamford Bridge. Now Premier League newcomers Hull have joined the race to sign the former Bayern Munich star on a season-long loan.
"We've made contact with Chelsea with regards to Claudio," Brown told the Hull Daily Mail. "It's a very expensive option, but again, it would be one if we got the option to speak to the lad or the opportunity to speak to the lad, then who knows?
"But as far as we are concerned we have made contact with Chelsea and that's where it lies at the moment."
