Jack Hunt seeks new Premier League route after £1.6m exit from Sheffield Wednesday
Leeds-born Hunt, 27, who started his career at Huddersfield Town and has also played for Rotherham United and Barnsley on loan, has joined City on a three-year deal for a fee in the region of £1.6m.
After play-off heartache with Wednesday in 2015-16 and 2016-17, Hunt is eyeing better fortune with the Robins, who were top-six candidates for most of last season.
