Leeds United and Hull City target Norway international

Leeds United and Hull City are reportedly monitoring the situation of Bodo/Glimt winger Jens Petter Hauge this summer.

Hauge is part of Norway's squad for the 2026 World Cup as they prepare for their quarter-final tie with England.

The 26-year-old has made 19 appearances for his country and has scored one goal.

He has also played a starring role for club side Bodo/Glimt in recent times as the Norwegian side have enjoyed success both domestically and in Europe.

On The Minute have reported that Premier League sides Leeds and Hull are keeping tabs on the player's situation.

Hauge broke into the first-team at Bodo/Glimt after progressing through the club's academy and he scored 35 goals in 118 appearances before sealing a lucrative move to AC Milan in the summer of 2020.

He failed to establish himself in Italy and he eventually moved to Eintracht Frankfurt after a couple of successive loan moves.

His time in Germany was short-lived after his permanent move and he found himself back on loan at Bodo/Glimt before joining permanently again last year.

Hauge has won the league title twice since his return and has been part of the team which has reached the knockout stages of both the UEFA Europa League and the UEFA Champions League in the last two seasons.

His performances have caught the eye of numerous teams throughout Europe, with Leeds and Hull topping the list of the English teams who are interested.

Leeds are looking to kick on this season after securing their survival last season, while Hull are looking to build a squad which is capable of competing in the top-flight.
