Solid in first full PL campaign Sarr scored three goals and provided three assists in 34 appearances (27 starts) this past season.

Impact In his first full season with Spurs, Sarr established himself as a regular starter. He appeared in all but four games and two of those were while he was playing at AFCON. He provided six goal contributions despite playing much of the season in defensive midfield. While Spurs are expected to be busy in the summer transfer window, the 21-year-old appears to be an important part of the club's plans for the future.

Starting once more Sarr has started two matches in a row after falling to the bench for a pair of matches.

Impact Sarr has been in and out of the starting XI, though even when he's left on the bench he generally plays a significant second-half role. The midfielder doesn't offer much offensively but he's a calming presence in the center of the park. Still with his consistent sub risk and lack of major production he has struggled to fill the stat sheet of late.

Returns in loss Sarr came off the bench for the final 10 minutes of Thursday's 2-1 loss to West Ham.

Impact Sarr was originally expected to miss Thursday's loss but it appears he recovered a bit ahead of schedule and got on the pitch Thursday. He didn't contribute too much but if he is truly fit once more he should be back in the starting XI sooner rather than later.

Impact Sarr will be sidelined for his third straight contest but at least has a target return date in mind. The midfielder has been a mainstay in the starting XI this season and should be in contention to reclaim his spot on the pitch once given the all-clear. Bryan Gil figures to be dropped from the starting XI once Sarr is ready to play.

Could return in coming weeks Sarr (undisclosed) is hoping to return after Sunday's trip to Manchester City, according to manager Ange Postecoglou.

Impact Sarr was deemed to be alongside Richarlison as the Spurs players closest to making a return, though neither will be ready for Sunday's trip. Sarr suffered the injury before a 2-1 loss to Aston Villa and leaves an absence in central midfield. Giovani Lo Celso is forced into action with Sarr sidelined.

Impact Sarr recorded his second assist of the season Monday as he set up Dejan Kulusevski's goal in the sixth minute to take the 1-0 lead. He and Spurs were flying at the start of the game but after receiving two red cards between the 33rd and 55th minutes, Sarr made way for Rodrigo Bentancur to try and see out the game. Sarr also picked up a yellow card just before halftime, his third booking of the season.

Five crosses in win Pape Sarr had five crosses (zero accurate) and two clearances in Friday's 2-1 win over Crystal Palace.

Impact Sarr, who left Monday's match early with an illness, played the full 90 minutes of Friday's match. He recorded a season-high five crosses (zero accurate) and put in solid defensive work, intercepting two passes, making two clearances and blocking one shot. With the return of Rodrigo Bentancur, Sarr's place as an every-week starter may be in jeopardy when Bentancur is fully back fit. However, given how well Sarr has played this season, he will still likely see the field every week even if Bentancur returns to the starting XI.

Expected to be ready Friday Sarr has recovered from an illness and is expected to be available for Friday's trip to Crystal Palace, according to manager Ange Postecoglou.

Impact Sarr should remain in the starting XI Friday, though the only worry is that it's a short week and anything can happen in the starting XI, especially with Yves Bissouma available from suspension again. Sarr has started every match since coming off the bench in the opener. Even as a defensive midfielder, he's supplied 17 assists and 10 chances created in nine appearances, which may be more of a result of the new manager's style of play.
