Speaking on the Premier League’s YouTube channel, Ben Foster has been waxing-lyrical about reported Tottenham and Liverpool target Ismaila Sarr.

The winger has been lighting up the Premier League in the opening weeks of the season, most notably tearing Aston Villa apart on the opening day of the season.

Liverpool and Spurs have both been credited with an interest, and Foster believes the winger is amongst the very best in the Premier League.

What’s been said?

Foster named Sarr as one of the best wingers he’s seen.

“In terms of a winger, he may not be the hardest I’ve ever played against, but Ismaila Sarr at Watford at the minute. He is frightening, honestly, he is frightening. How fast this guy is, I’ve never seen anything like it, his acceleration is phenomenal,” Foster said.

Big things coming

With all due respect to Watford, you have to feel that Sarr is destined for something bigger in his career.

Yes, he’s a star for the Hornets, but just listen to how Foster speaks about him. This is a player destined to play at the top level, and it’s no surprise to hear Spurs and Liverpool are after him.

His pace, his dribbling ability and his eye for goal make him a frightening attacker, and whichever club eventually signs him from Watford will have a star on their hands.
