Dundee United transfer deal hits major snag while target on way to Scotland as player gets to London before heading home
DUNDEE UNITED'S move for Bosnian striker Said Hamulic has hit the skids. Tannadice boss Jim Goodwin had targeted the Toulouse forward for a summer move. 2 Said Hamulic travelled to Scotland to complete the deal Credit: Getty 2 But he turned back after heading to London following a major snag Credit: Getty Hamulic was due to arrive in Scotland on Monday but it's understood the 24-year-old only got as far as London before a snag emerged in the deal. The six-times-capped Bosnian international has now returned to France, with the switch in doubt. Goodwin was eager to bring the hitman on board, with Toulouse willing to let him out on loan again despite spending £1.7m to buy him from Polish club Stal Mielec two summers ago. Hamulic hasn't settled in French football so has had previous spells out at Vitesse Arnhem, Lokomotiv Moscow and Wizdew Lodz since. United remain in talks with Toulouse in a bid to rekindle the deal, but work needs to be done to get it back on. The Tannadice side are also waiting on the work permit process before finalising their move for Ukrainian keeper Yevhen Kucherenko. Meanwhile, Sam Dalby has hailed the Tannadice club after turning down a permanent deal in favour of signing a four-year deal at Bolton. He said: 'I had a good time in Scotland, played a lot of games, and that is something I needed to go and do. Thankfully it got me here now. 'You have just got to look out there, really, 20,000 fans cheering you on every week, such a big club with massive ambition. 'The whole club is aligned with what they want to do. They want to get into the Championship as soon as possible, and that's something I really want to be a part of. Jim Goodwin on playing his one and only Celtic game on Henrik Larsson's big day and cherished memories of tragic friend Liam Miller 'I came in a couple of weeks ago and I realised what the ambitions were, how much they wanted me to come in and fit into the team, to be honest, there was no doubt in my mind that I wanted to come here. 'I'm under no illusion on what the club is trying to do next season, trying to get promoted, and I am looking forward to going out there and trying to do my best. 'I'll be bringing goals to the team, mainly, bringing my team-mates into play, and I'll be going out there to work as hard as possible every week. Hopefully that will be enough."

The bizarre Celtic transfer act of Said Hamulic as striker finally set for Premiership switch
The Tannadice outfit have agreed a season-long loan deal with Toulouse Said Hamulic has never been one to shy away from headlines but Jim Goodwin will be hoping it will be his goals for Dundee United that will have everybody talking. United have agreed a season-long loan deal with Toulouse for the Bosnia and Herzegovina striker and that deal could be finalised in the next 48 hours. The 24-year-old has been with the French side for two years but has struggled to make his mark and after disappointing loan spells at Vitesse, Lokomotiv Moscow and Widow Lodz he will be looking to get back on track with Goodwin's Euro-bound squad. Hamulic is no stranger to Scotland as he was on Celtic r adar back in 2023 before he made the move to Ligue 1. The Dutch-born forward had come to the fore after a goal-filled loan spell at Polish side Stal Mielec. Hamulic, who had been loaned out from Lithuanian side Dainava to Poland, netted an impressive nine goals and pitched in with four assists in just 19 appearances. It made him hot property and the player certainly thought he was close to sealing a move to Celtic. A bizarre 'Said Hamulic, welcome to Celtic video' with a show reel of his career highlights was briefly posted on his Instagram account before it was quickly removed. A few weeks later, it was Toulouse who sealed a deal when they agreed to pay £2million to land him. The Bosnian never got his move to Scotland at that point but is finally set to get a crack at the Scottish Premiership in the tangerine and black of Dundee United. Hamulic moved to Toulouse in the January of 2023 but made just nine appearances and failed to net. He did end up with a Coupe de France winner' medal, as an unused sub as Toulouse beat Nantes 5-1. The frontman then made headlines as he was one of three players at Toulouse who were alleged to have refused to wear a rainbow flag on their club shirt, which was part of a campaign by the French Football Federation. Zakaia Aboukhlal was left on the bench while Moussa Diarra and Hamulic were left out of the squad for the match against Nantes. The 2022-23 season was to finish on a high as he got his first taste of international football with Bosnia and Herzegovina. He won the first of his six caps against Luxembourg in that June. There was the hope that could help spark his career in Toulouse the following season but he was sent back to his country of birth and a loan spell with Vitesse to try and get him to rediscover his form. It didn't go the way either side hoped. He failed to score in 14 appearances and in January his loan was terminated. Hamulic, though, always remained confident and Goodwin will be hoping that continues at Tannadice and also seeps on to the pitch. Hamulic said: "I don't know if I will stay in Toulouse. 'I don't know what the plans are and what will happen. When I get home, I'll think about it. 'It was a difficult season for me, also mentally. 'But when you look at my career, I always come back stronger. This will also be the case next season." He went to Lokomotiv Moscow but played one game as his loan was wrecked by injury. Last season he went out on loan to Polish side Widzew Lodz but again injury curtailed him. He netted once in 13 games and also pitched in with three assists. The goals haven't exactly been free-flowing for Hamulic since he moved to France. But if they had, then he would have been out of United's financial grasp. Goodwin, along with fellow new striker Zac Sapsford, is now going to give him an opportunity to get back to his best. It is quite similar to Sam Dalby. Before he came up on loan to United, he had hardly had a prolific strike rate but ended up amongst the Premiership's top scorers. Goodwin will be hoping Hamulic can do something similar.
