As the transfer window continue to witness more activities, the future of Nigeria international forward Sadiq Umar at Almeria is far from certain, OwnGoalNigeria.com can exclusively reveal.
Sadiq is tipped to leave the club before the end of the current transfer window with Villarreal locked in talks with Almeria over his potential signing. Both teams are still €5m apart in their valuation of the 25 year old.
The Almeria top scorer for two consecutive seasons isn’t in any way bothered about his future insisting that he is very comfortable at his present club but doesn’t know what the future holds. ” If you ask me where I will be playing next season, I will tell you Almeria but honestly speaking I don’t know what the future holds”, he told OwnGoalNigeria.com in Kaduna where is back on holiday.
Sources close to the player revealed that he is open to the idea of joining Villarreal if both teams can agree on a fee but at the same time the lure of UEFA Champions League on offer at Sevilla might be too tempting to refuse.
However, Sevilla are yet to make an official bid for him but the player’s camp believe it’s a matter of time before the offer arrives particularly with the departure of Luuk De Jong from the club. For now it’s Villarreal who are in the driving seat but a deal is far from agreed between both parties.
