Nigeria Olympic star Sadiq Umar signs to NAC Breda on loan from Roma

Nigeria Olympic striker, Sadiq Umar has been signed on loan until the end of the season by Dutch club NAC Breda. The tall forward arrives from Italy's AS Roma, who Umar joined in July 2015 from second tier side Spezia Calcio.

"Sadiq (Umar) is a very talented player who has already played at the top level," Technical director Hans Smulders told Breda's official website.


"In his search for more playing time, Sadiq now has to compete with the other strikers in our team. We took him on loan for half a year, but we've expressed the intention to extend this in the summer until mid-2019."

Umar has made six appearances for AS Roma, scoring two goals.
