The midfielder started his career at Hull and now could be on his way back. He rose up through the youth ranks at the East Yorkshire club and made his first-team debut in a Championship fixture against Swansea City in August 2010.

Devitt went onto make 18 more appearances for The Tigers. He spent a lot of time out on loan from the KCOM Stadium with the likes of Darlington, Shrewsbury Town, Grimsby Town, Bradford City, Accrington Stanley and Rotherham where he gained plenty of first-team experience.

He was released by Hull when they were promoted to the Premier League in 2013 so joined Chesterfield on a free transfer. The Dublin-born man played eight times for the Spirerites before finishing the 2013/14 season on loan at Morecambe.

Devitt joined Morecambe on a permanent deal in 2014 and did well for the Shrimpers in his two years there before moving to Carlisle.

After being released by the Tigers six years ago, Devitt is now being linked with a surprise return to Hull on a free transfer.
