Sadiq Umar has insisted he would rather not talk about his future at UD Almeria after they failed to win promotion back to La Liga.
Almeria crashed out in the semifinal of the promotion playoffs when they fell 3-0 on aggregate to Girona.
“Regarding me joining another club, I don’t want to discuss it, I just want to remain cool and enjoy the break while my manager takes care of that,” he said.
“There are better days ahead for me.”
The striker said he was disappointed his goals could not get his club back to the Spanish top league.
“I scored 28 goals – six with my former club before I joined Almeria, where I scored two goals in cup games and 20 goals in the league, but I would have been happier had my goals helped my team to be promoted to La Liga,” he said.
“To me the goals do not really count but the promotion was the main target of the club as it should have been a collective responsibility to promote the team to the elite league.
“The team have invested so much and we should have paid back the club owners with promotion.”
He added: “We tried our best, but our best was not good enough in the play off, we should have obviously done better but it’s a thing of the past now which makes me feel bad.
“It’s one of the things you cannot change, so you should not get too worried about it.”
