The manager’s success was further highlighted by Hull’s recent 3-0 victory over Cardiff City, marking consecutive wins for the team. In recognition of his achievements, Rosenior has been rewarded with a new long-term contract extending until the summer of 2026.
Expressing his delight, Rosenior mentioned his strong affinity for the club and credited the support of the players and backroom staff. He emphasized the alignment of goals and values within the club, expressing pride in representing Hull as the manager. Looking ahead, Rosenior sees this commitment as the beginning of a successful journey and hopes to create lasting memories with the team.
