Vito Mannone has joined Championship outfit Hull City on loan until January the 3rd 2011. The Italian stopper is expected to go straight into the squad to face Sheffield United tomorrow.

Mannone will be allowed to complete the season with Hull if both Arsenal and The Tigers are happy with the agreement. The Italian Under 21 international joins City just over a week after publicly telling Arsene Wenger of his desire to seek regular first-team football.

Vito will wear the number 29 shirt at the KC Stadium. You can read a full report on Young Guns tomorrow should he make his debut against Sheffield United.
