Sadiq Umar: Real Sociedad to make final decision on Super Eagles striker during pre-season

Spanish Laliga club Real Sociedad will make their final decision on Super Eagles striker Sadiq Umar during this summer's pre-season, Soccernet.ng reports.

Real Sociedad will make a final decision on the future of Sadiq Umar during this summer’s pre-season, according to Estadio Deportivo.

The striker joined La Real from Almeria two years ago in a club-record €20 million transfer. He arrived with a big reputation after registering 43 goals and 19 assists in 84 games for Almeria, helping them gain promotion to the Spanish top flight.

But the deal has not panned out well for both parties. Sadiq scored on his debut for Real Sociedad, but he sustained a cruciate ligament tear in his second game, which ensured that he missed the rest of the campaign.

He returned to action last season, but he failed to deliver. Coach Imanol Alguacil gave him many chances at the start of the season, but his chances reduced drastically towards the end of the campaign.

This summer, there have been serious talks that Sadiq could leave, with Sevilla, Getafe, and Valencia touted as potential destinations.

But in a new development, Sadiq may just get another chance to prove himself. If he performs well during this pre-season, Real Sociedad may reconsider selling him.

However, if Sadiq does not perform, both parties may have to part ways finally this summer.
