Acun's Hull City Dream: One Step Closer to €300 Million!
Hull City picked up another crucial three points on Saturday, beating Portsmouth 1-0 at Fratton Park to make it back-to-back wins and move to 60 points in the Championship.
The only goal came from Crooks in the 73rd minute — a moment that could prove massive come the end of the season.
When Acun Ilıcalı bought Hull City back in 2021 for just £20 million (€23 million), many questioned the move. Fast forward to 2026 and the Turkish media mogul is on the verge of something extraordinary.
Should Hull City win promotion to the Premier League, TV deals and sponsorship revenue alone could bring in approximately €300 million — making this one of the smartest investments in football history.
Points: 60
Position: 3rd
Games remaining: 12
Portsmouth: 19th with 39 points — already looking doomed
The gap to the automatic promotion spots is still there but narrowing. With 12 games left, every single match is a potential six pointer.
Acun started this journey with a dream. Right now, that dream has never felt closer.
Come on City. Let's go up.
