Sky Sports understands Hull City are poised to sign non-league hot-shot Calaum Jahraldo-Martin from Dulwich Hamlet.
Martin has been earning rave reviews for his performances this season and his performances for the Ryman Football League outfit have not gone unnoticed.
A number of Premier League and Championship clubs were thought to be tracking Jahraldo-Martin, but Hull have pounced to land the highly-rated attacker.
Jahraldo-Martin has impressed Hull boss Steve Bruce and his coaching staff after scouting him on several occasions this season.
Jahraldo-Martin featured for the Hull's reserves on trial earlier this month and the Championship promotion hopefuls have seen enough to line up a deal for the player.
Bruce is set to hand Jahraldo-Martin an 18-month deal at the KC Stadium as he sees the player as very much one for the future

Went to Champion Hill yesterday. Pretty grim game but Dulwich showed why they are doing well by grinding out a win....helped by a massive mistake by the Chipstead defender.
A few things struck me, in no particular order;
The disappointing crowd. I thought they'd get more than 412 for a Bank Holiday game. Having said that, there were probably less than 10 Chipstead followers.
The friendliness of the people working at the ground....very welcoming.
The quality of the pitch. For the time of year, it was very flat and looked well cared for.
The quality of the jerk chicken burger. By far the best football food I have ever had!
The poor quality of the beer in the clubhouse. The Spitfire was rotten.
The shabby clubhouse bar. The blue wallpaper has got to go!
The good quality of the beer in The Phoenix at Denmark Hill....pricey at £4.10 but not bad at all.
The height of the Dulwich centre-back.....he must've been at LEAST 6' 5"
The Chipstead long throw specialist. Delap distance but not quite the same trajectory.
The speed of the Dulwich wingers. They were the game changers.
The discipline of the players. There was little arguing with the ref or linesman and the players just seemed intent on the game.
I was at the Cup final in 2011 that the Hamlet also lost and the two recent playoff final defeats, the Hamlet have got a really poor record in anything final related!
Funny you should say that. On Sunday I was at Kent County Ground in Beckenham, watching my 17 year old grandson and his Corinthians team beat Hamlet 3-0 in a Cup semi final, having previously lost to them earlier in the season. Regarding behaviour, the team were good as gold, but the Referee was having problems with the supporters.
Hamlet lost 3-2 to Concord Rangers in the Ryman League Cup final last night played at Maidstone.
I was there and at the previous one. Hamlet did pretty well considering thet Concord were from a division above them. Having led twice Hamlet were undone by a dodgy free kick decision for Concords equaliser. Concord got their noses in front early in extra time and hamlet never looked like they would get back in it.
Matt Fry was playing for hamlet, working his way back to fitness he looked like he could play a few levels higher.
@simonsen the crowd was equally disappoining last night for the League Cup Final 405.
Hamlet no. 2 lost it with the inept ref in the second period of extra time and got two yellows

Think you'll find that Matt Fry was playing for Concord rather than Dulwich Hamlet. I wasn't there but Matt posted this picture on Twitter. According to the Concord website, he's played the last few matches for them.
