Hull City have reached a club-to-club agreement with Colorado Rapids for the transfer of 18-year-old Australia defender Lucas Herrington. The newly-promoted Premier League club will pay an upfront fee of approximately $17 million (£12.6m) plus $6 million (£4.4m) in add-ons. Colorado Rapids will retain a 15% sell-on clause on any future profit. Personal terms have not yet been finalized but are not expected to be an issue. Herrington, who made his senior international debut in March and was part of Australia's 2026 World Cup squad, has been a regular starter for Colorado this season with 17 MLS appearances. Barcelona had a previous bid rejected, and Liverpool have also scouted the player. Hull City were promoted to the Premier League last season via the Championship play-offs.
