Umar Sadiq

In January 2026, reports of an imminent transfer to Valencia cited an agreement for a fee between €3 million and €4 million plus variables, with another source stating the fee was just under €5 million. An earlier rejected offer from Valencia was reportedly a €500,000 loan with a €1 million purchase option. In August 2025, his Transfermarkt value was reported at €5 million. In mid-2025, Valencia had a non-mandatory purchase option of €9 million which they did not exercise, and Real Sociedad's asking price was reportedly €10 million. The player's transfer from Almería to Real Sociedad in September 2022 was for a reported €20 million.

Our valuation is driven by multiple, consistent reports from January 2026 indicating an imminent transfer for Umar Sadiq from Real Sociedad to Valencia is agreed upon. These reports place the fee in a tight range between €3 million and just under €5 million, including variables. This represents a significant decrease from the €9-10 million purchase option and asking price reported in mid-2025, and an even larger drop from his €20 million transfer in 2022, reflecting his current status as surplus to requirements.
