English full-back Cody Drameh, who has featured in all three of Hull's games this season, is heading in the opposite direction to Norton-Cuffy - with Genoa set to pay £3.4m.
Hull City has signed forward Ilyas Ansah from Union Berlin and is close to finalising a £12 million deal for Genoa right-back Brooke Norton-Cuffy. Meanwhile, English full-back Cody Drameh is moving in the opposite direction, with Genoa set to pay £3.4 million for his services. Norton-Cuffy, 22, has spent two years at Genoa and previously played for Arsenal, representing England at the Under-21 level.
Ansah, who turns 22 in November, has signed a five-year contract with Hull, joining the club on a five-year deal worth 15 million euros (£12.8 million) with 12 million euros (£10.2 million) in add-ons. The Germany Under-21 international expressed his excitement about playing in the Premier League, stating it's a dream come true for him.
Hull City has already signed 12 players this summer, achieving a successful start to their Premier League return after a nine-year absence. The club is also in advanced talks to sign Everton midfielder Tim Iroegbunam for £22 million and Olympiacos midfielder Christos Mouzakitis for approximately £13 million.
