Nigeria’s Super Eagles striker Sadiq Umar has had his goal nominated for the La Liga goal of the month for December.
The tall attacker returned to action after spending a long period recuperating from the injury he sustained in 2022.
Real Sociedad defeated Sevilla 2-1 with Sadiq’s 25-yard strike deciding the game.
The strike has been nominated for the goal of the award alongside Brahim Diaz’s strike against Villarreal and Aitor Ruibal’s against Real Madrid.
Sadiq is expected to be part of the Super Eagles team for the 2023 African Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast in January.
