The young midfielder is now called the young “starboy” during training,Journalist keep praising the boy

Tottenham Hotspur’s first-team squad have all started calling young midfielder Pape Matar Sarr ‘Starboy’ during training.

Journalist Alasdair Gold was speaking on the Gold & Guest Podcast about the Senegalese international.

Sarr grabbed it with both hands and has started all but one of the club’s league games this season.

Unsurprisingly, his performances have started to impress his Spurs teammates.

And now, the Tottenham squad have started referring to Sarr as ‘Starboy’.

He’s clearly got a huge future ahead of him and looks to be the perfect partner for Yves Bissoumaand James Maddison in midfield.

Speaking about the 21-year-old, Gold said: “Pape Matar Sarr was terrific against AC Milan. Antonio Conte went, well thank you for that, go and stand over there, and that was literally what he did.

“Whereas, [Ange] Postecoglou’s gone, no no, this kid’s going to be just a world-beater.

“Like I say, around the club they call him ‘Starboy’, that’s what the players call him because they believe he’s just going to be this phenomenal young player.

“I’m very excited about the way Postecoglou’s going with this team.”
