Everton striker Nikica Jelavic reckons a move to Hull will re-ignite his career - and fire him back to the top of the goal charts.
The two clubs have agreed a fee for the Croatia international and all that remains is for personal terms to be finalised.
Everton boss Roberto Martinez has allowed former Rangers star Jelavic to leave to help his World Cup fortunes as the striker has been reduced to a bit-part player at Goodison after the loan signing of Romelu Lukaku.
"Steve Bruce called me and told me he wants me in his team as a leading attacker," said Jelavic.
"He was very confident during that conversation and after that I agreed to move to Hull City."
