Real Sociedad striker Umar Sadiq's season is over.

The Nigeria international moved to La Real just a fortnight ago from Almeria.

But a serious knee injury suffered against Getafe has seen him ruled out for the season. A scan has shown a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee.

Sadiq now faces potentially 7-9 months in recovery.

He had joined La Real for a club record €20m up front plus €5m in bonuses.
