That’s how you plan for the future! Pape Matar Sarr has signed a new contract which should keep him tied to Tottenham Hotspur until 2030.The announcement of Sarr’s new six-and-a-half-year contract with Tottenham marks a significant commitment between the club and the 21-year-old midfielder. Since Ange Postecoglou took the helm at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Sarr has been a consistent presence on the pitch, playing in every available game and showcasing his talent in the midfield.Pape Matar Sarr – 2023/2024 so far [@papematarsarr15] pic.twitter.com/cSOMdeIxXu— Senegal Comps 🇸🇳 (@SenegalComps) January 1, 2024 ##NAJAVA_MECA_7777977##The Senegal international, initially signed from Metz in 2021, returned to the club after a loan spell in Ligue 1. His development continued last season with 14 appearances for Spurs, and he notably stood out alongside Oliver Skipp in the crucial Champions League round of 16 clash against AC Milan at the San Siro in February 2023.Sarr’s reliability and skill in the midfield have earned him a regular starting spot under Postecoglou, barring a brief spell out due to injury in late November and early December, coinciding with Tottenham’s unfortunate losses during that period.Having represented Senegal in various competitions, including the Africa Cup of Nations and the FIFA World Cup, Sarr remains a key figure for both club and country. However, a recent injury concern during the win over Bournemouth, in which he scored his second goal for Spurs, might impact his participation in the upcoming AFCON. Additionally, Tottenham will also miss the services of Yves Bissouma, who is also set to compete in the AFCON, while Heung-min Son leads South Korea in the Asian Cup in Qatar.
