West Ham United boss Manuel Pellegrini decided to send out Jordan Hugill on loan to Middlesbrough at the start of the season.
Middlesbrough fans have slated West Ham United loanee Jordan Hugill for his performance against Burton Albion last night.
West Ham have loaned Hugill to Boro for the season, after he failed to make much of an impression at the London Stadium.
However, the move may not have gone as Manuel Pellegrini’s side were hoping as Hugill continues to struggle.
Boro were handed what looked like the easiest route to the Carabao Cup semi-final, as they were drawn against League One Burton.
However, Tony Pulis’ side slipped to a 1-0 defeat in front of their own fans.
And West Ham loanee Hugill took the brunt of the Boro supporters’ frustrations on social media website Twitter.
Hugill has scored three times in 16 matches for Middlesbrough, with his move to West Ham hardly working out as he hoped.
Hugill has been a prolific scorer at Championship level before making the switch to the London Stadium, but there are now big question marks over where his future lies.
