After helping the Rojiblancos secure promotion to the Spanish topflight, the 27-year-old joined the Reale Arena outfits in a deal worth €26m plus add-ons and a 15 percent sell-on clause until the 2027/28 season.
Having started the 2022/23 season in fine form, scoring three goals in five matches with a debut goal for the Txuri-Urdinak against Atletico Madrid, Sadiq suffered an injury that saw him undergo surgery and was eventually out of action for 11 months.
Since his return from the ACL injury, Umar has failed to replicate the form that saw Sociedad invest in him, becoming the club’s most expensive signing.
Immediately after the 2023/24 season, the Kaduna-born expressed his desire to leave the club in search of first-team action.
Getafe, Sevilla, and Genoa have all shown interest in the Nigerian but are reluctant to meet Sociedad’s €20m asking price.
