Celtic are reportedly leading the chase to sign Stal Mielec forward Said Hamulic.

The Lowdown: Hamulic profiled

The 22-year-old is primarily a centre-forward who can also play on the left wing. The Dutchman made the move to Polish club Stal Mielec in the summer and has been in fine form this season, contributing to 13 goals in 19 appearances.

Talent scout Jacek Kulig has hailed the player for his pace, power and finishing, and it seems as if a move to Parkhead could be on the cards.

The Latest: Celtic lead Hamulic transfer race

The Scottish Sun relayed reports from Poland in the last 48 hours regarding Hamulic.

They described him as the unexpected star of the season and claimed that it is the Hoops who are leading the chase for his services, with Stal Mielec president Jacek Klimek accepting that they are set to lose the striker this month.

The Verdict: One to watch

Much of the talk regarding Celtic’s search for a new forward has been centred around Cho Gue-sung, but it seems as if Hamulic could be a name to keep an eye on in the coming days.

He appears to be at the peak of his powers with a career-high Transfermarkt valuation, and you’d like to think that he’ll only get even better in years to come.

Any forward who comes to the Premiership champions may end up replacing Giorgos Giakoumakis after contract talks broke down, with FC Midtjylland interested in the Greek striker's services.
