Super Eagles forward, Sadiq Umar has been dealt a massive blow after his club, Real Sociedad confirmed that the forward has sustained a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament.
The club made the revelation via a statement on their club website:
"He suffered a twist in his right knee during the Getafe-RS match, held yesterday, 09-11-2022.
The MRI done this morning shows a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament. It is a subsidiary lesion of surgical treatment. In the next few days it will be reported.

Following his fast start to the season (3 goals in 5 matches), this injury is a big dent in the progress of Sadiq, and we have to wait and see how he bounces back when he returns.
