'Big step-up' - Hjerto-Dahl on joining Hull and watching the play-off final
[Getty Images] Summer signing Jens Hjerto-Dahl says Hull City fans can expect to see a "hard-working midfielder" who likes to create chances at MKM Stadium this season. The Norwegian spoke to BBC Radio Humberside about joining the Tigers and rising to the Premier League. "A big step-up from what I'm used to in everything," Hjerto-Dahl said. "The players are better, the team-mates are better and you've got more quality around you. It's a bigger stadium and it's more fans so everything is just bigger. "I'm a player who works hard, who wants to score goals and also receive crosses. Be a guy who sets his team-mates up for shots and for chances, and when we have the ball I also like to keep the ball and rest with it to create good attacks. Just a hard-working midfielder really." When the 20-year-old was asked whether striker Oli McBurnie had spoken to him about his play-off final goal, Hjerto-Dahl said: "I actually watched that game live. "It's a big game in Norway, English football is big in Norway, and I watched him score it live. He hasn't talked to me about it but I've seen it and that was a big moment. Biggest moment in this club maybe. "I didn't think I would be standing here when I was watching the game back in May so, it happens fast." Listen to the full interview below or on BBC Sounds here
