Tottenham Hotspur and Senegal midfielder Pape Matar Sarr has signed a new six-and-a-half-year contract until the summer of 2030.
The Senegal international, 21, has established himself as a pivotal first-team player under new manager Ange Postecoglou.
Sarr, who made his debut for the Senegal national team on 26 March 2021 in an AFCON 2021 qualifier against Congo, has been to the Senegal AFCON 2023 squad.
However, his participation may be in doubt after he went off injured in Sunday’s 3-1 win over Bournemouth.
On 6 February 2022, he won the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations with Senegal. He made one appearance at the tournament, appearing as a substitute in the 3–1 semi-final win over Burkina Faso.
Sarr joined Tottenham from Metz in 2021 but spent the 2021-22 season back on loan with the French side.
Since making his Spurs debut in January 2023, Sarr has made 33 appearances in all competitions, scoring twice.
