Valencia’s first half of the season has been disastrous, leaving them in the La Liga relegation zone. With new head coach Carlos Corberan tasked with steering the team away from trouble, he will need reinforcements on the transfer front.
Eko Hot Blog reports that on the second day of the 2025 winter transfer window, Valencia has secured their first signing, Umar Sadiq.
According to Diario AS, Real Sociedad has agreed to loan the Nigerian striker to Valencia for the remainder of the season.
Sadiq is expected to join Valencia next week, which means he will miss Friday’s match against Real Madrid.
Given Valencia’s struggles to score this season, his arrival could provide a much-needed boost in attack.
It will also raise questions about the future of Rafa Mir, who has been linked with a move back to Sevilla.
