Tottenham midfielder Pape Matar Sarr is reportedly in discussions over a potential move to Turkish giants Fenerbahce ahead of the summer transfer window.
The Senegal international picked up a shoulder injury during the international break, adding to Tottenham’s growing injury concerns. He was forced off in a friendly against Gambia after sustaining the issue in training and is expected to be sidelined for around one to two weeks.
Tottenham injury update – expected return dates:
Mathys Tel – within days
Pape Matar Sarr – 1–2 weeks
Guglielmo Vicario – 1–2 weeks
Mohammed Kudus – 1–2 weeks
Yves Bissouma – unknown
James Maddison – May
Rodrigo Bentancur – April
Ben Davies – unknown
Dejan Kulusevski – unknown
Wilson Odobert – September
Reports from Turkey, via Sport Witness, suggest Sarr could be a surprise departure this summer, with Fenerbahce already opening negotiations. It remains unclear whether talks are taking place directly with Tottenham or with the player’s representatives.
Sarr has recently changed representation, with a potential switch to Unique Sports Group—an agency that manages high-profile players like Marc Guehi and Anthony Gordon—possibly increasing the chances of a move.
While Galatasaray are also said to be interested, Fenerbahce appear to be the only club that has formally initiated discussions so far.
Despite the speculation, it would be unexpected for Spurs to part ways with the 23-year-old, who is under contract until 2030 and still developing toward his peak years, especially if the club retains its Premier League status.
