Olympic Bronze medalist, Umar Sadiq has signed for UD Almería on a five-year deal, the Spanish side announced on transfer deadline day.

“Umar Sadiq is Rojiblanco! UD Almería and FK Partizan agreed the transfer of the striker for five seasons. Welcome!” Almeria wrote on their official twitter page.

The 23-year-old enjoyed his time at Serbian club Partizan Belgrade, scoring 23 goals and 19 assists in 52 appearances for the Black-Whites.

The Nigerian joined Partizan Belgrade on an initial loan deal in July 2019 and later turned into a permanent deal following the striker’s impressive form for the club.

Sadiq will hope to help Almería secure promotion to LaLiga as soon as the 2021/2022 season.
