Real Sociedad Ready to Offload Struggling Striker, Demands €20m Transfer Fee

Real Sociedad is prepared to part ways with Super Eagles striker Umar Sadiq, according to a report from Spanish publication AS.

The Basque club is now open to offers for the forward, with a valuation set at approximately €20 million.

Sadiq, who joined Sociedad two seasons ago in a record transfer from Almeria, has struggled to find his footing at the club.

His tenure has been marred by injuries, including a serious setback that sidelined him for 11 months, a couple of games after his arrival.

Since his return, the Forward has faced difficulties regaining form, managing to start only 12 of Sociedad’s 38 La Liga matches last season.

As the 2024/25 season approaches, both Sociedad and Sadiq have reportedly agreed to part ways.

Interest in the striker has emerged from clubs like Genoa and Sevilla, though negotiations have proven challenging due to Sociedad’s firm stance.

AS reports that the club is demanding at least €15 million plus a percentage of any future sale, a figure that may be prohibitive for potential suitors, especially those preferring a loan deal.
