Hull City manager Sergej Jakirović said that Arbër Hoxha was a target for the club, but due to a ban they could not pay the compensation and Dinamo did not want to let him go. Jakirović confirmed that Hoxha will certainly be part of Hull's analysis and discussions for possible signings, but stated it is too early to conclude anything. He added that the club needs to see how much money will be available and who they will be able to bring in. Jakirović said he knows Hoxha well from Dinamo.

Index.hr reports that Sergej Jakirović was interested in Arber Hoxha and wanted to bring him to Hull City, but a ban on incoming transfers prevented this. Now that he has entered the Premier League, he will be seeking signings for the team and could try to sign Hoxha again.

According to Sportske Novosti, Hull City's interest in Arbër Hoxha arose when he was not a key player at Dinamo, but a transfer is not considered realistic now that he is one of the main players at the club. Hull City is under a transfer embargo until the summer, which prevents them from bringing in players for a fee until the end of the season.

According to Sportske Novosti, Arbër Hoxha stated in an interview that he is happy at Dinamo. He said there was interest from Hull City, but he never considered leaving. Hoxha added that Dinamo means everything to him and that he has a new contract, status, good performances, and goals. Puljić also commented that it is not known what would have happened if Hull City had been allowed to register players at that time, or whether that interest would have been realized. He stated that this is now in the past. According to Puljić, Hoxha stayed, is playing very well, and the price for which Dinamo would have sold him back then is lower than it would be now if new offers come in. Puljić also stated the price will be especially higher if Hoxha manages to go to the World Cup with the national team.
