Scout report

Squad depthCreative Attacking midfielder

P. Sarr is a 23-year-old attacking midfielder at Tottenham, rated 79.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 96th of 376 on scout potential in the Premier League. An emerging talent, he has been a rotation option this season (41.2% of available minutes). He brings 0.38 goal contributions per 90 (0.13 goals, 0.26 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Sarr.

Judged on this season alone, Sarr graded 21 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 41st of 73 of the 73 attacking midfielders in the Premier League, on 2 goals and 4 assists in 26 appearances (0.383 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 40 → 21). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 80, top 37% of the 73 attacking midfielders in the Premier League. At 23 Sarr is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 95.5 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Sarr missed 6 games through injury (international duty, shoulder) out of roughly 38 this season. The 26 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Goals / app

2 goals in 26 appearances (0.08 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 4 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 6 goal contributions (0.23 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.38 goal contributions per 90 (0.13 goals, 0.26 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Defensive volume. 3.89 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 91.6/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 41.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

With a Rating of 79.6, Sarr carries the 27th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Premier League (top 37%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Tottenham finished 17th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.38 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 23, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
