The LaLiga Alaves side has opened the discussion with the representative of the International Nigeria Sadiq Umar forward on a transfer to the club from the true society in the current summer transfer window, reports Owngoalnigeria.com.
Sadiq faces an uncertain future in Real Sociedad despite the club’s president’s comments on keeping him in the club, after his impressive performance in the season until now.
Missing on the training tour of the club in Japan due to the visa and uncertainty about his future, the 28 -year -old will join with the rest of the team when they return from the training tour, but it is likely that he leaves if everything goes well with the Alaves.
After the sale of Joaquín Panichelli to Racing Strasbourg for 16.5 million euros, Alaves is on the market for a replacement and see the Nigerian as someone who fits the bill due to his experience playing in the League.
The club only has Asier Villalibre and Toni Martínez entering the new season with Kike García’s departure after his contract expired, which makes the search for a new striker essential for the club.
The Basque media outlet Basque says that it is already in conversations with Umar Sadiq to try to sign it this summer and move it from San Sebastián to Vitoria, they are convinced enough that it will bring the form that should in the second half of last season, while it is on a loan to Valencia.
He scored six goals in 18 games at the club, but rejected the option to sign it permanently due to financial problems.
