  "summary": "Sergej Jakirovic, the boss of Hull City, has expressed uncertainty over whether the club will make a second bid for Swansea City striker Zan Vipotnik. Hull had previously made an offer to Swansea for Vipotnik, but it was rejected. Vipotnik, a 24-year-old Slovenia international, was the leading scorer in the Championship in the 2025-26 season, netting 25 goals for Swansea, including 23 in the league. Jakirovic, speaking on BBC Radio Humberside, confirmed that Hull had sent a bid to Swansea, but it was deemed insufficient. When asked if the Tigers would make a second bid for a player he previously worked with at Maribor, Jakirovic responded that he was unsure and believed the answer was no.",
