Mujaid Sadick Aliu has emerged as one of the players relegated German side Schalke 04 plan to sign as part of the rebuilding process of the club.
Schalke 04 want an immediate return to the Bundesliga and the 21 year old is seen as one player who can help in that regard and talks are already underway regarding a deal worth around €2 million to sign him from Deportivo La Coruna.
Sadick who holds the record of the youngest debutant for the club in the La Liga when he made his debut against Villarreal in May 2018 has been one of their standout players for Deportivo La Coruna who are now in the Spanish 3rd division.
So far he has only missed one game and that was due to suspension. He has started in 21 out of their 22 games playing a leading role in their going top to the table in view of promotion to the second division.
A host of second division teams and even some La Liga teams have shown interest in signing him but for now it’s Schalke 04 interest that is seen as the most concrete among all.
With the 3rd division league coming to an end this Sunday, there is every chance that the defender who was born in Spain to a born to a Nigerian mother and a Ghanaian father won’t be around next season.
He is eligible for Nigeria, Ghana and Spain at international level but for now he has only represented Spain at two different youth levels, all that could change with a strong showing next season be it at Deportivo or elsewhere.
