Nigeria international forward Sadiq Umar has expressed his frustration and relief that the year 2024 has come to an end, according to report. The Super Eagles striker has had a disappointing year, failing to get regular game time at Spanish side Real Sociedad. Despite returning to full fitness from an ACL injury that kept him out for over a year, Umar has only played in seven games this season and has not scored any goals.
Umar's frustration was evident in a new year message he posted on his Instagram account, in which he expressed his desire to see the end of 2024 and hinted at a possible exit from Real Sociedad. The message, written in pidgin English, conveyed his tiredness of sitting on the bench and his eagerness to move on from a difficult year.
The lack of playing time has been a major source of frustration for Umar, who was once a prolific goal scorer in the Spanish league. His inability to break into the starting lineup at Real Sociedad has led to speculation that he will depart the team in the January transfer window. Umar is reportedly unhappy with his current situation and is looking for a new challenge where he can get regular game time and rediscover his form.
