Accies star Mickael in demand

-

HAMILTON ACCIEs striker Mickael Antoine-Curier looks to be on his way out of New Douglas Park.

A number of clubs in England have enquired about his availabili­ty and were given encouragem­ent to make an offer for the 31-year-old.

the former Hibs and Dundee front man is in his second spell at the club and has netted eight times this season, with Hamilton not losing a game when he has scored.

However, a parting of the ways looks set to be on, with the Premiershi­p side believed to be keen on Falkirk striker Rory Loy as his replacemen­t.

A source at the Accies said: “A bid for Mickael was not expected during this window, however, a couple of clubs from England have been in touch.

“If firm offers come in they will be put to Mickael and his representa­tives and they will decide what the next step will be.”

Alloa Athletic are weighing up a move for Ryan Hutchinson, brother of former Motherwell star shaun, as the Championsh­ip side seek January reinforcem­ents.

Hutchinson, 21, was previously on the books of st Johnstone and Celtic as a teenager before joining Blyth spartans last summer.

He has impressed for the Croft Park outfit, playing a major part in their fairytale run to the FA Cup third round, where they suffered a narrow 3-2 defeat against Birmingham City.

Hutchinson arrived on trial earlier this week as he attempts to impress manager Barry smith sufficient­ly to win a switch from England’s eighth tier to the scottish Championsh­ip.

the towering midfielder featured in a non-competitiv­e game at the Indodrill stadium on tuesday evening.

Ryan’s older brother, shaun, now plies his trade with Fulham, but was a firm favourite at Fir Park, playing more than 100 games during his six-year stint in North Lanarkshir­e.
