Season 'can't come quickly enough' as Butland joins Hull
[Getty Images] Hull City have made goalkeeper Jack Butland their first signing of the summer. The 33-year-old has arrived from Rangers for an undisclosed fee on a two-year contract, with the option of an additional 12 months. The nine-time England international has spent time in the Premier League across spells with Stoke City and Crystal Palace . "I'm delighted it's all sorted now and I'm really excited to be here," Butland told the club website . "It's a great challenge and a fantastic season to look forward to. The challenge is obvious but an exciting one. "The Premier League is the best league in the world and, personally, it's a great opportunity to be on the biggest stage again. I believe it's the level I'm capable of playing at, and I've done it before. "As a club, we've got a great challenge back in the Premier League, not just to stay in the league but to really enjoy it and do as well as we can. "The last few years playing at an incredible club like Rangers, somewhere I hold close to my heart, meant it had to be something really enticing to change that. "I've already had some chats with the goalie coach [Erbil Bozkurt]; he seems like a great guy and I've heard great things about him, which is really important to my time here. "It can't come quickly enough. I'm really looking forward to seeing the fans in a really exciting season for us as a club."
