Hudlin, who turns 22 next week, headed Moors in front at the London Stadium only for Grimsby Town to win it 2-1 in extra-time to reach the EFL.
But SunSport understands the forward will not be left disappointed for long.
He is preparing to jump up THREE divisions this summer with the Terriers after they also lost a play-off to reach the Premier League last month.
Hudlin signed for Moors in October 2020 on a two-year deal after banging in 25 goals in 22 games for Sunday League side Boldmere Falcons.
