Career

[edit]

Sarr made his senior debut with Olympique Lyonnais in the Europa League on 6 December 2012 against Hapoel Ironi Kiryat Shmona. He opened the score after 15 minutes, and Lyon won the game 2–0.

On 28 July 2015, Sarr joined Charlton Athletic on a five-year deal.[4] He scored his first goal for the club against Huddersfield Town on 15 September 2015.[5]

On 21 June 2016, Sarr joined Red Star on a season long loan deal.[6]

On 15 December 2018, Sarr was sent off inside the first minute of Charlton's League One match against AFC Wimbledon, beating a club record previously held by Nicky Weaver.[7]

On 11 September 2020, Sarr joined Huddersfield Town.[8] He scored his first goal for Huddersfield in a 4–3 defeat against Stoke City on 21 November 2020.[9]

On 1 June 2022, it was confirmed that Sarr had been released by Huddersfield Town at the end of his contract.[10][11]

On 26 August 2022, after nearly a month with the club, Reading announced the signing of Sarr to a four-year contract.[12]

On 12 June 2023, Sarr joined Al-Markhiya in the Qatar Stars League on a two-year contract.[13]

International career

Sarr has played for the France U20 and France U21, but because of his father's Senegalese heritage, he received a call-up to the Senegal national football team in November 2019.[14]

Personal life

  1. ^ Soccerbase incorrectly states that Sarr came on in the League One match Vs. Walsall on 26 September 2017 in a 2-2 draw. He was, in fact, an unused substitute for this game meaning his total league appearances for Charlton Athletic is 95 not 96. This non-appearance is confirmed at both Charlton Athletic's website and via the BBC.[3]
  2. ^ One appearance in the Europa League
  3. ^ Two appearances in the Europa League
