Lucas Herrington says it is "a dream come true" to join Hull City and be given the opportunity to play Premier League football.
The 18-year-old Australia defender has signed a five-year deal with the Tigers and becomes their ninth summer transfer.
Herrington made two appearances for his country during the World Cup and missed a spot-kick when they were beaten by Egypt on penalties in the last 32.
"I'm buzzing to be here," Herrington said. "It's a great project and a great club to be a part of. I'm so excited to be here.
"The opportunity to play in the Premier League, one of the best leagues in the world, is a dream come true. I've woken up at all hours in the morning in Australia to watch these games. To be a part of it is so special.
"I can't wait to meet all the boys and the fans. I'm here to work hard and hopefully get a lot of games in the Premier League."
Do you think Hull need more players? How would you sum up recruitment?
