The Nigerian striker has many of Europe’s top teams in his wake
Umar Sadik is being one of the proper names of the market, since it has been related as the Villarreal CFthe Sevilla F.C. or the Atletico Madridwhich has been one of the last to be interested in the player. They are not the only ones, as they also have other great clubs from Serie A and the Premier League following in their footsteps. But the footballer is clear about what his next step should be.
The UD Almeria you know that the player will not continue at the club next season and they are considering several names to reinforce the team’s attack. One of the most popular is Edinson Cavani, who is clear that his next destination will be the Santander League. However, his main problem to arrive at UD Almería is his high salary, which is around 3 million per season.
Umar Sadiq, tempted by Villarreal CF and Sevilla FC
As we have learned in recent days, one of the last to join the bidding for the player has been Villarreal CF. The yellows contacted to know the price for the player. UD Almería requests around 20-25 million euros to let the Nigerian go, a figure that the yellow submarine is not willing to reach at the moment unless one of its attacking players leaves.
For its part, Sevilla FC also have the player among their candidates, but he is not Monchi’s preferred option. Raúl de Tomás is the one they like the most in the Seville club, but they know that they will have to make a significant financial outlay to get the Spanish international. Of course, as for Umar Sadiq, he prefers to play in a club that disputes the Champions League, which gives them more options to get his signing.
Atlético, the last to join the bid for Umar Sadiq
If anyone was missing to join the bid for the Nigerian striker, that was Atlético de Madrid. With Matheus Cunha as the only nine, the club knows that they will need to strengthen the position. Umar Sadiq likes the club and the player would be delighted to work under Simeone. Also, an economic outlay of 25 million euros is an amount perfectly affordable by the club.
As we have mentioned, the player’s priority objective is to play in the next edition of the Champions League. But at the moment there is no offer from Atlético de Madrid, who is exploring other options that offer more guarantees than the UD Almería striker, who does not have much experience at the highest level. The bidding is open and now all that remains is to know what the player’s decision is.
