Walter is expected to depart having won just three of his 18 games in charge across the Championship and EFL Cup.

The German's imminent exit comes a day after Hull owner Acun Ilicali said Walter would remain in his post whatever the result against Sheffield Wednesday.

"He will be in the job," Ilicali told the BBC before the 2-0 defeat. "If we lose tonight, he's going to be in the job."

German Walter was only appointed in the summer after the controversial decision to sack Liam Rosenior having narrowly missed out on a play-off place last season.
