Six of the Best: Players to feature for both Middlesbrough and Hull City

George Boateng

And finally, who can forget ex-Netherlands international George Boateng?

Now 41-years-old, the former defensive midfielder starred for Middlesbrough and Hull City in back-to-back transfers, starting at the Riverside Stadium in 2002 following his £5m move from Aston Villa.

Boateng, who won four international caps for the Netherlands, won the League Cup with Boro in 2004, before appearing in the 2006 UEFA Cup final against Sevilla, where the La Liga side claimed victory (0-4).

After scoring nine times in almost 250 appearances for Boro, Boateng opted for a new challenge and signed for Hull in July 2008, where he would go on to net one goal in 56 games for The Tigers, before leaving the club following their relegation from the Premier League in 2010.
