Ibrahim Sadiq's move to Ligue 2 club Saint Etienne falls through

Published on: 01 February 2023

Attacker Ibrahim Sadiq's transfer to French Ligue 2 club Saint Etienne is off according to reports in France.

Saint Etienne was forced to abandon the agreement after refusing the demands of Ibrahim Sadiq's agents.

The player's personal contract, its length, and the stipulations required by his representatives were judged unachievable by the club.

The Ligue 2 team and Häcken had already agreed on a deal worth about €2 million. Saint Etienne was keen on adding Sadiq to their ranks to boost their chance of survival in the French second tier.

On 18 February 2022, Sadiq signed a contract with BK Häcken in Sweden until the end of 2025.

Sadiq was with the Right to Dream Academy before moving to Europe.

Sadiq played at the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup scoring the match winner and earning the Man of the Match in Ghana's opening day victory against Colombia.

He won the Swedish Allsvenskan last season with BK Häcken. Sadiq is not set to continue wearing the jersey of the Getingarna till the end of the season.
