Hamilton Accies' Brian Rice believes he has filled an attacking midfield missing link after g Adrian Beck from Royale Union Saint-Gilloise.

The 22-year-old will spend the season in the Scottish Premiership from the club who play in Belgium's second tier.

"Offensive-midfield is an area we needed to strengthen and I believe we've now done that," boss Rice said.

"He's a good age and he's very sharp on the ball. I think he will settle well in Scotland."

Beck, who began his career with Hoffenheim in his German homeland, has made four appearances for Saint-Gilloise after switching from Ulm 1846 in January but has not played this season for the side who sit t top of their division.

However, the midfielder believes he has what it takes to make a quick impact in Scottish football and hopes to make his debut at home to champions Celtic a week on Saturday.

"Scotland is a new place for me, but I know the level of physicality this league needs and I believe I'm ready for it," he told Accies' website.
