Egypt's and Hull City's new striker Amr Zaki vowed he will pay Tiger back to show ex-Wgian boss Steve Bruce what the Egyptian is up to. “My return to the English Permier League is simply an answer to Bruce's false allegations against me last season”, Zaki told Qatar-based Pan-Arab weekly Estad Al-Doha newspaper on Monday. “Bruce's false allegations costed me a return to Egypt and I will now show him my worth”, said Zaki. Zaki, who scored 11 Premier League goals for Wigan during a loan spell last term, will be joining from Egyptian club Zamalek. Hull manager Phil Brown hopes that Zaki's latest stint in England will be as productive as his last as the Tigers look to climb out of the relegation zone. "We are pleased to confirm the loan signing of Amr Zaki from Zamalek FC," a statement on Hull's official website, www.hullcityafc.net, said Monday. "The player yesterday (Sunday) signed a loan agreement until the end of the season to join Hull City AFC. "As is the case with all non-EU (European Union) transfers, there are work permit and other red tape issues still to be confirmed, but we are expecting the player to return to England and join Hull City on Friday this week. "The playing contracts are signed and confirmed, however the final details must be undertaken before the loan can commence." Zaki said he was looking forward to playing in the Premier League again. "I'm happy to be back in the Premier League through Hull City," he told his official website, www.amrzaky.com, on Monday. "Tigers are good side and I'm looking forward to do my best for the team. "I want to thank both Phil Brown and (chairman) Adam Pearson for the faith they showed in me and my target is to repay this faith on the field by helping my team-mates to do the best for the club and for the fans. "I'll travel back to Cairo on Tuesday to finish some stuff then back to join my team on Thursday." Hull's leading scorer in the league this season is Republic of Ireland midfielder Stephen Hunt with five.
