Umar Sadiq Career
Sadiq began his senior career at Italian side Spezia where he failed to become a first team regular, but caught the eye with some performances in the league cup.
In 2015, he made a one-year loan. Unlike at Spezia, Sadiq was an instant hit, scoring only minutes after making his second appearance for the club in a 2-0 win over Genoa.
Roma made the loan permanent in August 2016, but Umar struggled to nail down a first team spot with other stars like Mohamed Salah and Juan Iturbe preferred ahead of him.
Sadiq went on a series of loans across Europe to teams like Bologna, Torino, NAC Breda, Rangers, Perugia and Serbian giants Partizan.
While at Partizan Umar delivered 18 goals in 34 appearances and that was enough to convince Spanish side Almeria to fork out £7.6 million to sign the Super Eagles striker.
