Hull City head coach Sergej Jakirović has signed a new two-year contract with the newly promoted club after guiding the Tigers to a perfect start to their return to the Premier League.
The 49-year-old’s new deal will keep him at the MKM Stadium until the summer of 2028, with the club holding an option to extend the contract by a further 12 months until the end of the 2028/29 season.
A Friday club statement on its website disclosed this.
Jakirović has overseen a remarkable transformation since taking charge in June 2025, guiding Hull from the brink of relegation in his first season in English football to Premier League promotion.
His impressive work has continued in the top flight, with Hull winning their opening two league matches without conceding a goal.
