Tottenham put Pape Matar Sarr on transfer list

Tottenham Hotspur have placed Pape Matar Sarr on the transfer market, opening the door for Galatasaray to pursue the Senegal midfielder before the window closes.

The decision is understood to have disappointed the 23-year-old, who subsequently removed Tottenham-related posts and images from his social-media accounts.

Galatasaray have submitted an official €18 million offer for Sarr, according to reports. Tottenham rejected the opening proposal, with the Premier League club reportedly seeking at least €25 million before considering a sale during the current transfer window.

Negotiations between the clubs are continuing as Galatasaray work toward an agreement with Spurs. Although there has been no breakthrough on the transfer fee, the Turkish champions are believed to have made significant progress in discussions with Sarr over personal terms.

Sarr joined Tottenham from Metz and has established himself as a versatile, energetic midfield option in north London. His potential departure would represent a notable change to Tottenham’s squad plans, while Galatasaray view him as a valuable addition capable of strengthening their midfield.

The player’s apparent frustration could add urgency to the situation, but Tottenham remain firm on their valuation. Galatasaray must now decide whether to improve their bid or explore alternatives as the deadline approaches. The outcome depends on whether both clubs can bridge the €7 million gap.
