Real Sociedad insider not ruling out the possible departure of Sadiq before window closes
Published: August 18, 2024Allnigeriasoccer.com can report that Super Eagles forward Sadiq Umar could leave Real Sociedad before the end of the current transfer window.
The lanky striker joined the La Liga outfit in September 2022 as a replacement for Alexander Isak who had left the club the previous month for Newcastle.
He grabbed a goal on his debut against Atlético Madrid but had his momentum halted by an anterior cruciate ligament injury which he picked up in a Spanish La Liga game against Getafe.
He didn't return to action till the following season which was the last campaign, but couldn't score until matchday 14 of the Spanish La Liga when he netted a long range strike to help Real Sociedad beat Sevilla 2-1.
Despite netting in the following fixture against CA Osasuna, he could only manage three goals across the campaign and his poor return in front of goal has led to reports linking him with an exit from the Basque Country-based club.
He has been linked with Bologna who has lost the services of Joshua Zirkzee to Manchester United, Genoa as well as Spanish La Liga duo of Valencia and Sevilla.
Speaking with allnigeriasoccer.com, Real Sociedad press officer Jon Ander Munduate said that there is the possibility of Umar leaving the club before the closure of the transfer window.
The White and Blues will start their campaign today against Rayo Vallecano at Reale Arena (Donostia-San Sebastián).
