Three months after the picking up a nasty injury that has taken him off the pitch, Nigeria and Real Sociedad striker, Sadiq Umar, has begun the rehabilitation process for his long road to recovery.

Umar was ruled out of the season with the dreadful injury after being forced off in the 38th minute of Real Sociedad’s 2-1 loss to Getafe in September.

The striker according to Punch Sport was however pictured in the gym working his limbs as he goes through recovery, as shared by football agent, Mohammed Lawal.

“@RealSociedadEN, Striker Umar Sadiq getting there,” Lawal tweeted and added a thankful emoji to the post.

Following his record signing by Sociedad for €20 million with another potential €5 million in add-ons, Sodiq moved from newly promoted side in La Liga, Almeria.

He then immediately announced himself to the Sociedad fans in emphatic fashion when he came off the bench to score the equaliser just 10 minutes after his introduction as they held Atletico Madrid to a 1-1 draw on matchday four of the 2022/23 La Liga season.

He has already scored two goals for Almeria this season before making the switch.
