With Pape Matar Sarr not playing at Tottenham these days under Antonio Conte, it’s only normal for clubs to be looking at him for the January transfer window.
We’ve already seen stories of clubs in Spain eyeing up the midfielder, but now Salernitana in Italy are hoping to strike a deal with Spurs.
This has started over the past few days, with Calciomercato reporting the club have already initiated contacts with Tottenham, but they know it will difficult due to the competition for his services.
Gazzetta dello Sport push something similar on Wednesday, making it clear Sarr is their alternative option if they fail to sign Szymon Zurkowski from Fiorentina.
They are ‘precisely thinking’ about the 20-year-old Tottenham player if they cannot sign the Pole, but it’s made clear he is ‘also popular in France and Spain’.
Gazzetta also add in the headline that the Spurs man is Salernitana’s ‘dream’ for January, and a deal would only be a loan until June.Depending on the offers, this is something Tottenham would likely consider, because they spent a good €15m on the youngster, and will not want his development to be stalled.
So far, Sarr has failed to make appearance for his club, but was called upon twice by Senegal during the 2022 World Cup, including a 45 minute stint in the 3-0 loss to England in the round of 16.
