Forward Umar Sadiq has received high praise from Huesca SD goalie Andreas Fernandez ahead of the sides meeting at the weekend in LaLiga 2.
Sadiq’s Almeria travel to the Alcoraz for the round of 34 clash and Fernandez believes he and his defence need to be at the top of their game to stop the hitman.
This season, the Nigerian international has contributed the most individual goals to a team with 22 to fuel Almeria’s promotion push, and Fernandez admits that the forward is a player that requires special attention to stop.
Sadiq Umar was on international duty with Nigeria in the World Cup play-off against Ghana, but has since returned to his club base and is likely to make the matchday squad.
