Super Eagle’s Umar Sadiq Nominated for LaLiga Player and Goal of the Month Award
Umar Sadiq has been nominated for both La Liga’s Player of the Month and Goal of the Month awards for March. The Super Eagles striker scored three goals in three league games for Valencia last month, putting him in the spotlight for the top awards.
For Player of the Month, Sadiq will compete against Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappe, Real Betis’ Isco, Celta Vigo’s Marco Alonso, and Rayo Vallecano’s Pedro Diaz. He’s also in the running for Goal of the Month, facing competition from Rayo Vallecano’s Florin Rațiu and CD Leganes’ Diego Garcia.
Since joining Valencia on loan from Real Sociedad in January, the 28-year-old has scored four goals in eight league appearances, making a strong impact for Carlos Corberán’s side.
Chelsea player Enzo Fernández is in discussions to join Manchester City. This information was revealed by Fabrizio Romano, who shared that the two clubs are discussing a potential deal.
He wrote: “Enzo Fernández has a verbal agreement with Manchester City on personal terms.
“Deal depends on club-to-club decision, as #MCFC have not sent an official bid yet, but contacts will take place soon; decision on price is up to Chelsea.
“Enzo could be out again this weekend.”
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca mentions his captains for the team. He mentions Rúben Dias and Erling Haaland.
He shared “We have experienced players. For sure, we have leaders. Now we need to wait four or five more days until the transfer window closes to see if we can add one or two more captains to Ruben [Dias] and Erling , who at the moment are the two captains.”
Maresca confirmed the pair as part of his leadership group ahead of the 2026/27 season, with two more captains expected to be selected after the transfer window closes.
Chelsea manager speaks on the team and shares thoughts on considering a change in goalkeepers, giving another goalkeeper, Mike Penders, a chance.
“Penders is part of the squad, so he has an opportunity. We will decide and then I am giving the team tomorrow to the players, so I prefer to respect that they know first.”
