La Liga
Umar Sadiq has definitively been singled out at Real Sociedad. Pellegrino Matarazzo does not count on the Nigerian forward and has made it clear from the first league commitment, sending an unequivocal message about his immediate future.
Although he was called up for the match against Atlético Madrid, Umar Sadiq did not play a single minute. Ninety full minutes on the bench confirm that his role in the LaLiga in San Sebastián is marginal.
Umar Sadiq, out of plans at Real Sociedad
The new coach of Real Sociedad has opted for other attacking profiles and does not consider the forward in his rotation. A decision that the player himself has already accepted as final. Faced with this scenario, Umar Sadiq has expressed to the club his desire to leave as soon as possible. He does not want to consider other options and has been clear: he only contemplates wearing the Valencia CF shirt in this winter market.

Valencia CF, determined but without financial margin
Carlos Corberán considers Umar Sadiq a key piece to strengthen the attack and has internally insisted on his signing. The player has even shown willingness to lower his salary to facilitate his arrival at Mestalla.
However, the problem lies in Real Sociedad's position. The txuri-urdin club is not in a hurry and has initiated talks with figures that Valencia CF deems unfeasible due to its current financial limitations.
A context that complicates the operation in LaLiga
The negotiation has become even more delicate due to an added factor: both clubs are direct rivals for survival in LaLiga. A scenario that toughens conditions and reduces flexibility for the Donostia-based entity.
Last season, Umar Sadiq arrived at Valencia in early January on loan. This season, the situation is different. Now talks revolve around a transfer or a loan with a purchase option, formulas that seem distant as of today.
Corberán hoped to already have Sadiq under his command, but negotiations with Real Sociedad do not seem to be progressing as desired at Mestalla. The player's desire is to wear the white and black shirt again, but as of today, things do not look very promising for the Valencian fans.
