Hull City's star players rated as preparations begin for next season

A mid-season takeover, a managerial switch and Championship survival - it turned into an eventful season for Hull City.

Grant McCann and Cliff Byrne left the club following Acun Ilıcalı's takeover, with new boss Shota Arveladze stepping in to take the reigns. Optimism has again lifted following the departure of the Allam family, with big plans now eyed heading into what is set to be a crucial summer for the Tigers.

With many players still performing following a return to the second tier, popular website WhoScored delved into individual player ratings for the campaign as a whole.

Starting with the highest rated of course, that title belongs to Brandon Fleming, who scored an average of 7.21 across his 16 appearances this season. The 22-year-old was a mainstay within the team in the second half of the campaign, most notably notching two assists in City's 3-0 away win at Peterborough back in February.
