Umar Sadiq joins Valencia next week

Nigerian striker, Umar Sadiq will likely complete his move to Valencia early next week, sportsunlimited.ng can report.

As per Diario AS, Real Sociedad has allowed the Nigerian striker to make the move to the Mestalla on loan for the remainder of the season.

It is expected that Sadiq will join Valencia next week, meaning that he will miss Friday’s match against Real Madrid.

Valencia has struggled for goals this season, so bringing in Sadiq should help in this regard. It will be interesting to see whether this affected Rafa Mir’s future, as he has been linked with a return to Sevilla.

The first half of the season was disastrous for Valencia, and its poor form has meant that the team occupies a place in the La Liga relegation zone.

New head coach Carlos Corberan has been tasked with guiding Los Che away from trouble, although he will require help on the transfer front for this.
