If third place in the Ligue 1 standings will inevitably have an impact on the Marseille transfer window due to the Champions League play-offs that the Marseille club will have to compete in, Pablo Longoria and his entire team must advance their pawns on the summer transfer window. of OM. Last season, AS Monaco was slow to recruit a replacement for Aurélien Tchouaméni and this was one of the factors in the elimination of the C1 from the Principality club. Marseille does not want to make the same mistake and will have to present a competitive team as soon as possible. And this will go through the recruitment of players in several key positions. In defense, in attack, but also in midfield.
It’s no secret that the Marseille recruitment unit is already working on the recruitment of a player capable of replacing a Matteo Guendouzi more than ever on the start. As mentioned on FM, the tracks are already numerous, from Denis Zakaria (Juventus) to Habib Diarra (Strasbourg). But in recent weeks, a file has taken on more importance than others at OM, that of Pape Matar Sarr. According to our information, the profile of the Senegalese African champion of Tottenham appeals enormously to Pablo Longoria. A player who has always been precocious (he began his professional career in Senegal at the age of 15 and a half before arriving at FC Metz two years later).
Pape Matar Sarr is very happy in the Premier League
And there everything quickly came together for the Senegalese prodigy. League 1, the Senegalese national team at 18, a transfer to Tottenham, the African Cup of Nations, the CAF youngster of the year trophy and participation in the World Cup. Yes, but now, his adventure on the side of the Premier League is much more complicated than expected. With the Spurs, for his first season in England, Sarr only played 14 matches, including the entire 1/8 first leg of the Champions League against AC Milan, thanks in particular to the withdrawals of many Spurs midfielders (Yves Bissouma, Rodrigo Bentancur, Ryan Sessegnon or Pierre-Emile Højbjerg). A convincing match from the player who will have to settle for crumbs thereafter.
Obviously on his hunger compared to a first season of adaptation in England, the Senegalese international of 20 years, who already totals 14 selections is very happy to evolve in England and sees himself there well over time. According to our information, Sarr is also courted by other English clubs and has not made a return to Ligue 1 a priority. OM, who want to recover him on loan, will therefore have to find the arguments likely to weaken the position of the former Messin. It is therefore for the moment premature to say that Pape Matar Sarr will be the future key element of the OM midfield next season. But given his potential, his room for improvement and his talent, the native of the city of Thiaroye in the Dakar suburbs has everything the player who will make the Orange Vélodrome rise up…
