Sadiq Umar expressing himself after the team Almeria could not promote to Lal Liga at the end of the season had said its painful that they couldn’t get the promotion but he’s still grateful to God for it all.

“To me the goals do not really count but the promotion is the main target of the club as it should have been a collective responsibility to promote the team to Elite league. The team have invested so much and we should have paid back the club owners with promotions to the Elite league”

He further stated that:
“We tried our best but our best was not good enough in the play off, we should have obviously done better but it’s a thing of the past now which makes me feel bad as human. It’s one of the things you cannot change so you should not get too worried about it and that’s my present position as I speak to you”.

Talking about joining another club, he opened up that it’s not what he wants to talk about;
“Regarding me joining another club, I don’t want to discuss it, I just want to remain cool and enjoy the break while my manager takes care of that.”

While concluding, he said.
“There is better days ahead for me . My goals I scored in this season is 28 goals 6 with my former club before I joined Almeria I scored 2 goals in cup games and 20 goals lin the league , I would have been happier if my goals can assist my team to promote to la liga.”

Umar who has being in scintillating form this season following his move from Bulgarian side, Partizan Belgrade scored the only goal of the match in the 77th minute pushing Almeria up the log as they continue to dream for a return to Spanish top flight next season.

The goal off an assist from Brian Rodriguez make it 14th Segunda goal for Sadiq Umar.

The former AS Roma striker has truly justified the huge amount spent on him before the commencement of the season scoring 16 goals in all competition this season.

The Olympics bronze medalist winner has had his goals pushed Almeria to second on the log with 55 points from 28 league games.
