Aperribay mentioned in an interview with Noticias de Gipuzkoa, “Sadiq’s situation has changed dramatically. The latest updates I’ve gotten indicate that he has been performing excellently in training, similar to the other players who remained at Zubieta. We’ve been in regular contact with Erik Bretos regarding the training progress, and Sadiq is excelling.” We’ll wait to see how things unfold, but I wouldn’t dismiss the chance of him remaining with us for this season. “I believe that is evident.” The Nigerian player joined Real Sociedad from Almeria in 2022, as reported by Adeboye Amosu.
