Leeds United have parted company with midfielder Dave Livermore.

The midfielder has joined Hull City for an undisclosed fee only three weeks after completing a move from Millwall to Elland Road.

Livermore joined the club on July 20, but his arrival was superseded by that of fellow midfielder Kevin Nicholls, a £700,000 capture from Luton Town.

A club statement reads: "At the time of signing David, Kevin Nicholls and another potential midfield target weren't available to us.

"We then managed to acquire Kevin Nicholls and things have now opened up on another target.

"The situation with David is that with everyone fit he is unlikely to play. He's an honest professional and when the opportunity came up for him to talk to Hull we gave him that choice.

"We wish David all the very best for the future."
