Samuel Ntamack: Piast Gliwice complete free transfer for Franco-Cameroonian forward from SD Huesca

Piast Gliwice have completed the signing of centre-forward Samuel Ntamack from SD Huesca on a free transfer, with the Franco-Cameroonian striker agreeing a deal running from 2026-07-01 to 2029-06-30.

The 25-year-old moves to the Polish Ekstraklasa after leaving Spanish side SD Huesca, where he had been registered in the Primera Federación – Group II. The switch to Gliwice comes with Ntamack currently valued at €500k, underlining Piast’s decision to secure an emerging attacking option without paying a transfer fee.

Ntamack, born in Montreuil and holding both French and Cameroonian nationality, joins Piast as an out‑and‑out centre-forward, listed in his main role as an attacking spearhead through the middle and operating predominantly with his right foot. Standing at 1.78m, he will be expected to add mobility and direct running to Piast’s front line as the club prepares for upcoming Ekstraklasa campaigns.

The move also confirms a further step abroad in Ntamack’s career path. Having most recently played in Spain’s third tier with Huesca’s Primera Federación side, he now heads to Poland to compete in the country’s top division rather than remaining in his birth nation of France or representing a club in Cameroon. For Piast Gliwice, it represents an opportunity to add international variety to their squad profile, with the forward’s dual-national background fitting a team increasingly built on cross-border recruitment.

Ntamack’s professional profile, as recorded at the time of the transfer, depicts a player entering what should be his prime years, with his age listed as 25 and a market valuation of €500k. The free transfer nature of the deal suggests that his contract with SD Huesca had run its course, paving the way for him either to become a free agent or to line up a pre-arranged move—Piast ultimately capitalising by bringing him directly to Gliwice without a fee.

While detailed recent match statistics, individual game performances, and seasonal appearance numbers are not documented in the available data, his registration with Huesca in the competitive environment of the Primera Federación – Group II indicates that he has been operating in senior professional football in Spain prior to this move. That experience, combined with his age and valuation, is likely to have been central to Piast’s decision to invest in him as an attacking option.

Supporters in Poland will now look to see how efficiently Ntamack adapts to the Ekstraklasa’s physical and tactical demands, while followers in France and Cameroon will monitor his progress as another example of a dual-national forward building a career away from his home country and heritage leagues. With his contract in Gliwice beginning on 2026-07-01 and running through to 2029-06-30, the coming seasons will determine whether this step into Polish football becomes the defining phase of his career and a platform for further recognition at club or international level.
