Real Sociedad forward Umar Sadiq is attracting the interest of top clubs around Europe.
Sadiq Umar joined Real Sociedad from Almeria two years ago.
The 26-year-old has scored four goals in 39 appearances for Real Sociedad.
The Nigerian international has been linked with a potential move away from the Reale Arena, with several clubs offering him a lifeline.
Reports indicate that two Spanish clubs, Valencia and Sevilla, as well as Italian side Bologna, are interested in loaning the former Partizan player.
Although there has been no official statement from either Nigeria’s camp or Real Sociedad, it is widely believed that Umar has been under significant pressure at his current club. READ ALSO:
