Sadiq Umar who joined AS Roma youth team on loan this season from the youth team of Serie B side Spezia is in line to make his first team debut this season after his impressive showing in training with the first team of the Serie A giants.
The winner of the top scorer award in Italy youth league last season with 29 goals from 26 games has had training sessions with the main team and feelers indicate he might make his debut for the team if not in the Serie A then in the Coppa Italia.
Sadiq told close friends in a chat about how he has being warmly received by the senior players at Roma particularly Edin Dzeko who he views as someone he can learn from due to the Bosnian precise finishing skills.
Yet to be capped by Nigeria at any level, he currently stands an outside chance of making the Nigeria Olympics team.
