Swindon striker Charlie Austin and Leicester's Matt Fryatt, who Hull manager Nigel Pearson worked with during his time at the Foxes, are believed to be high on the wanted list for the Tigers.
"Charlie Austin is obviously scoring goals and is a good player but we've got a list of six centre-forwards and we're working down them," Adam Pearson said.
Ehab Allam told BBC Radio Humberside: "They [Adam and Nigel] have come to us with their first and second options and we have agreed to accept both so they are proceeding with their preferred options."
