There was talk of Pape Matar Sarr going out on loan again last summer and in the January transfer window, with multiple clubs thought to be keen on the young Senegalese star.
Salernitana were among those interested in acquiring Sarr earlier this year (CalcioMercato).
However, Antonio Conte reportedly blocked the move as he wanted to keep Sarr in his squad (Sky Sport Italia – as relayed by TEAMtalk).
Despite this, Sarr has found opportunities in North London limited this year. He has made only 13 first team appearances this term, totaling just 443 minutes on the pitch (Transfermarkt).
It is unclear what the future holds for Sarr, and a lot is likely to depend on how the new manager at Tottenham feels about the young midfielder.
However, it seems Sarr will have no trouble finding a new club if necessary.
The latest report from Tutto Salernitana claims the Italian side are still very much interested in Sarr and could be back to make another attempt at signing him this summer.
While the transfer proposal in January may have failed, the player has “remained in the sights” of Salernitana.
However, it is thought they would face competition for his signature if he is made available for transfer.

Much like Bryan Gil, Pape Sarr is a player I would love to see more of at Spurs and hopefully our next manager gives him a proper opportunity.
He’s shown a lot of promise and deserves to be given a run in the team.
