City are holding a media event at their Grand Tarabya hotel in Istanbul
Hull City are in Turkey for the second part of their European pre-season trip, having arrived in Istanbul on Wednesday night before training on Thursday morning.
During their trip to the city, Tigers owner Acun Ilicali, boss Sergej Jakirovic, club captain Lewie Coyle and star striker Oli McBurnie will meet the media at their hotel ahead of Saturday’s game with Kasimpasa.
The Tigers quartet will field questions from the Turkish media, but Hull Live is travelling with the squad and will bring you live updates from the press conference.
Expect plenty of chatter around the new Premier League season, as well as transfer talk with the club seeking to make a host of new signings ahead of the new season.

A translator, given three of the four at the top table, doesn’t speak Turkish. Previously, Acun Ilicali has turned translator during the presser.
We expect the bulk of the questions to come from the Turkish media gathered here today, but there will be an English section, for us, too.
We were expecting to get underway at half three our time, half one back in the UK, but we’re told it will now be 3pm, so in about half-an-hour.
We’re here inside the glorious Grand Tarabya hotel, our base for the next few days. We’ll be hearing from Acun, Lewie, Oli and Sergej shortly, so stay tuned.
