In difficulty in La Liga with a dangerous 19th place in the standings, Valencia needed to get active in the winter transfer window to once again become the competitive team capable of competing with the best. First element of response from this Saturday, January 4, with the officialization of the signature of Umar Sadiq. “Valencia CF has reached an agreement with Real Sociedad for the signing of Sadiq Umar until June 30, 2025. The striker, a Nigerian international, arrives on loan until the end of the current season and Valencia CF will have a purchase option at the end of it”specifies the press release.
In difficulty with Real Sociedad and hampered by injuries, the Nigerian international will seek to regain his confidence. This season, Sadiq has only worn the Basque club jersey eleven times, making five starts and no goals. He therefore signed for Valencia on loan until the end of the season, a contract including a purchase option at the end of his loan. A risky move for Valencia, who hope to see the arrival of the best version of the Nigerian striker, who had scored 43 goals in 84 matches with Almeria before signing for Real Sociedad.
