Tottenham have announced that Pape Matar Sarr has signed a new six-and-a-half-year contract following his impressive form this season.
The midfielder, 21, has established himself as an integral first-team player under new manager Ange Postecoglou.
Sarr scored in Sunday's 3-1 victory at home to Bournemouth, but then came off in tears with an injury as it was feared his availability for Senegal at the Africa Cup of Nations would be in doubt.
However, the player has since confirmed on social media that it was "more fear than harm" and said: "See you at CAN (AFCON)!"
Sarr signed for Spurs from Metz in the summer of 2021 and returned to the French club on loan the following season.
Sarr has made 33 appearances since his return to Tottenham, scoring five goals, including two in 18 Premier League games this term.
The winter transfer window is now open and will close at 11pm in England and midnight in Scotland on Thursday 1 February, 2024.
To ensure harmonisation with the major leagues in Europe, the closing dates were set following discussions with the EFL, DFL, Serie A, LaLiga, and LFP, who will all close their summer and winter windows on 1 September and 1 February respectively.
