Umar Sadiq wants Real Sociedad exit
Umar Sadiq's €25 million move to Real Sociedad hasn't gone according to plan. Injuries and a lack of rhythm have limited the 27-year-old Nigerian to just three goals in 1,363 minutes, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.

 

Brought in as a replacement for Alexander Isak, Sadiq struggled with a knee injury in his first season and hasn't found his footing in his second.

Seeking a change of scenery, Sadiq has reportedly requested a loan move, with Getafe emerging as the frontrunner. The loan deal would be mutually beneficial—Getafe needs attacking reinforcements after losing Enes Unal and with Borja Mayoral recovering from surgery.

Meanwhile, Real Sociedad would free up space in their attack as Andre Silva returns to RB Leipzig and Carlos Fernandez remains injury-prone.
