Tottenham are closing on a deal for Metz midfielder Pape Matar Sarr.

The Senegalese wonderkid, 18, burst onto the scene last season, appearing 22 times in Ligue 1.

RMC journalist Joris Crolbois claims that a deal is virtually done, with Tottenham having agreed a fee of around £12-13million.

L'Equipe add that Sarr could remain on loan at Metz for the 2021-22 season, having already started their opening two matches.

They also report that Spurs still need to agree personal terms with the two-cap Senegal international.

ESPN's Julien Laurens adds that the basic fee is around £8.5m, with the rest in bonuses.
