According to VoetbalPrimeur, Babadi expressed his concerns about being a loan player without a purchase option, stating that he would become "worthless" if he didn't have a chance to be a valuable player for the club. This comes after he played 17 games for Royal Antwerp last season, where he felt undervalued due to the lack of a purchase option. Babadi's concerns highlight the importance of a purchase option in loan deals, which can affect a player's status and value within the club.
Babadi has started his spell at Sparta on a positive note, scoring in his first game as a substitute against PEC Zwolle. He has expressed his desire to be a valuable player for the club and is looking forward to developing his skills with Sparta. With a purchase option in place, Babadi hopes to be an integral part of the team and contribute to Sparta's dynamic and unpredictable style of play, as he expects with the presence of players like Shunsuke Mito, Casper Terho, and Robin van Cruijsen.
