Higher bid likely for Williams

Peter Taylor, the Hull manager, is expected to raise his bid for ex-Hereford United player Gavin Williams next week.

Taylor has confirmed he will renew his bid to sign the player next week when Glovers manager Gary Johnson returns from holiday in Italy according to the Hull Daily Mail.

Taylor was unhappy that news of his bid had leaked out, but admitted that he was on Williams' trail.

"I'm disappointed that the story has come out but we are interested in him," said Taylor.

"What will happen now is that I'll speak directly to Gary Johnson and we'll up the offer next week when he gets back from holiday.

"If Gary says yes or no we'll take it from there and see if we can reach an agreement or not."

It is thought that Taylor will need to offer a six-figure amount to capture Williams who recently signed a new contract at Yeovil.
