Tottenham Loan Deal for Pape Matar Sarr with Juventus

Tottenham have agreed a deal with Juventus for Pape Matar Sarr to leave on loan, with an option for the Italian club to make the move permanent for £25.7million at the end of the season.

The midfielder’s departure is part of a flurry of late-window movement around Spurs, as Roberto De Zerbi reshapes his squad in the final days of the market.

Mikey Moore is set to follow him out of north London, with Tottenham granting approval for the highly rated youngster to join Bundesliga side Koln on loan. Left-back Souza is also on his way, heading to Porto on a temporary deal until the end of the campaign.

Spurs are not just trimming numbers. They are still pushing to bring in another attacker before the deadline and remain in talks with Everton over Iliman Ndiaye.

And Everton’s business with Tottenham does not stop there. In a separate move, the Merseyside club are working on a deal to bring Richarlison back to Goodison Park, two years after he left for Spurs.

De Zerbi laid bare the situation over the weekend, confirming that Richarlison has joined Sarr and Kevin Danso in asking to leave the club, with Danso attracting loan interest from Sunderland.

“He said too many times that he wants to leave,” De Zerbi said of Richarlison. “Danso came to me two days ago, and he said he wants to leave, and Pape Sarr, the same, but he suffered a small injury, but he is almost ready to train.”

The message from the Italian coach was clear: no one will be held against their will, provided the numbers add up.

“I love these players, they are great guys, I have very good relationships,” he said. “But if they want to leave, they have to bring the solution, the economic solution, to the club, and they can go, and we find other players.”

Spurs now stand on the brink of a late-window reset: key squad players pushing for exits, replacements being lined up, and De Zerbi ready to back only those fully committed to his project.
