Some Tottenham Hotspur fans are responding to Pape Matar Sarr’s latest post on social media website Twitter.
Sarr joined Tottenham from Metz for £15.6 million in the final few days of the summer transfer window [The Athletic].
But being only 18, Spurs have little short-term use for the attacker and he was loaned back to the Ligue 1 side immediately for the 2021-22 campaign.
Having said that, he certainly impressed for his native Senegal this week, helping them to a 2-0 win over Togo.
Sarr managed 73 minutes of a game that was ultimately won by goals from Liverpool’s Sadio Mane and Paris Saint-Germain defender Abdou Diallo.
Sarr took to Twitter last night to post a photo of himself celebrating with Mane, posting three heart emojis – green, yellow and red – as the caption instead of words.
Here’s how some fans of the North London side responded to the player:
Fine summer
By virtue of the fact that Sarr already has three senior caps for his country, you could say the future is very bright for him.
For so long this looked like being a horrific summer for Tottenham.
It took them about two months to hire a replacement for Jose Mourinho – and failed with a number of names before eventually settling for Nuno Espirito Santo – and Harry Kane looked like leaving, too.
But Spurs wound up keeping Kane amid huge pressure from Manchester City and Nuno is looking the business too, having won all three of his Premier League games as the Lilywhites sit top of the table.
However, it wound up being a stunning summer by Fabio Paratici and Daniel Levy and although we’ll have to wait a while to see just how good a signing Sarr is, the early signs suggests this, at £15.6 million coup, could be one hell of a deal.
