The one thing Antonio Conte is working on with Pape Matar Sarr in Tottenham training

Cristian Stellini has hailed Pape Matar Sarr as a "great player with many possibilities" after starring for Tottenham of late. Wowing Antonio Conte ahead of the Premier League returning for business, the Senegal ace has made quite an impression off the bench in Spurs' last two games against Aston Villa and Crystal Palace.
