Ben Burgess is hoping to end speculation about his Hull City exit by forcing his way into Phil Parkinson's thoughts against Tranmere Rovers tonight.
The 25-year-old has been at the centre of intense speculation linking him with a move away from the KC Stadium, with Blackpool and Brighton both admirers.
Having been recalled to the City bench for Saturday's draw at Ipswich, Burgess is likely to be handed an increased role in tonight's League Cup first round clash.
Although "flattered" by the interest of other clubs, the forward is keen to stake his claim for a regular start under Parkinson.
"As far as I know, my immediate future lies at Hull City and I will just look forward to taking the chances when they come," Burgess told the Mail.
"It's not unsettled me in any way. If anything, it's flattering to know that other clubs are interested in me.
"I don't think the manager wants to get rid of me, that much seems clear but I've got to get on with it and take what ever chances come my way. I just want to play as much football as I can.
