Hull City have recalled goalkeeper Eldin Jakupovic from his loan spell at Leyton Orient.

The Premier League side have been forced to bring back the 29-year-old after first-choice keeper Allan McGregor was injured and sent off against West Ham on Wednesday night. Jakupovic played 13 times for Orient after initially joining them in January, keeping seven clean sheets to help maintain their League One promotion push. It is the second time he has been recalled by Hull, although this time the blow may be softened slightly as Orient's regular number one Jamie Jones is close to being fit after a back injury.
