Club career

Early career

Hamulić started playing football at a local club Alphense Boys, before joining the youth academy of Go Ahead Eagles in 2019. A year later, he switched to Quick Boys' youth setup. In February 2021, he signed with Lithuanian team Dainava, with whom he made his professional debut and scored his first professional goal. Due to the club's relegation that season, Hamulic moved on loan to Botev Plovdiv, where he made a single appearance for the reserve team before returning to Dainava.[2][3] In March 2022, he was sent on a four-month-long loan to Sūduva.[2]

In July, he was loaned to Polish side Stal Mielec for the rest of the season.[4]

Toulouse

In January 2023, Stal Mielec exercised their buy option on Hamulić; shortly after, he was transferred to French outfit Toulouse for an undisclosed fee, reported to be approximately €2 million.[5] He made his official debut for the squad in a Coupe de France game against Reims on 8 February.[6] Two weeks later, he made his league debut against Marseille.[7] He won his first trophy with the club on 29 April, by beating Nantes in the Coupe de France final.[8] In May, it was reported that Hamulić was among five players from Toulouse who boycotted playing during the Ligue 1 Week aimed at combating homophobia and transphobia on principled grounds.[9] The club later released a statement about sidelining player for the match.[10]

In July, Hamulić was sent on a season-long loan to Vitesse.[11]

In January 2024, he was loaned to Russian side Lokomotiv Moscow for the remainder of the campaign.[12]

In July, he was sent on loan to Widzew Łódź until the end of the season.[13]

In June 2023, Hamulić received his first senior call-up to Bosnia and Herzegovina, for UEFA Euro 2024 qualifiers against Portugal and Luxembourg.[14] He debuted against the former on 17 June.[15]
