Tottenham to hold talks with Pape Matar Sarr over new contract

Tottenham Hotspur are set to hold talks with midfielder Pape Matar Sarr over a new contract, 90min understands.

Sarr has featured in each of Spurs' three Premier League Games so far this season and has been among the team's top performers, scoring in the victory over Manchester United and registering an assist as Spurs saw off Bournemouth at the weekend.

With two starts to his name this season, Sarr has already started as many Premier League matches as he did across the entirety of the previous campaign.

Sarr's development has not gone unnoticed by Tottenham officials, who are keen to reward the 20-year-old with a new contract to reflect his emergence as a key player under new manager Ange Postecoglou.

The boss has managed to draw excellent performances out of both Sarr and Yves Bissouma - two players who appeared out in the cold last season.

Spurs could see plenty of midfield movement before the summer transfer window comes to an end, with Denmark international Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg free to explore his options after losing his place to Sarr.

Manchester United have been offered the chance to land Hojbjerg, who worked alongside Erik ten Hag at Bayern Munich.

There could also be a departure for Eric Dier, who is attracting mounting interest from across Europe after being left out of Postecoglou's matchday squads.

In the Premier League, Fulham have been offered Dier's services but there is interest in the 29-year-old from Portugal, France, Germany and Scotland, while clubs in Saudi Arabia have also been alerted to his availability.

Joyce Tsang of Stone & Star on Self-Care and Setting Intentions for the New Year

Image
Joyce Tsang, the founder of Stone & Star, shares her self-care routine and tells Prestige why 2024 is the year of ceremony, celebration and new rituals. This year is an eight-year in astrology, which is all about abundance and expansion. There’s a shift happening this year that will never happen again in this lifetime and it’s Pluto moving into Aquarius. And if you subscribe to feng shui, all the masters will tell you we’re entering a new 20-year cycle. Either way, it’s almost like a rebirth for everyone. It also fits nicely with the Year of the Wood Dragon too, which is all about building a foundation and growth. This is the Year of Ceremony for me. There’s so much around this word, it could mean a public ceremony, like a marriage, or it could mean an inner ceremony and setting new rituals. The most important thing to remember this year is to treat life as sacred and to celebrate life and to embrace all the joys and magnificent experiences tha...

'Parrot fever' outbreak in 5 European countries kills 5 people

Image
An outbreak of a respiratory infection that most often affects birds has killed five people in Europe, the World Health Organization (WHO) warns. During 2023 and the start of 2024, Austria, Denmark, Germany, Sweden and the Netherlands have reported an "unusual and unexpected increase" in cases of so-called parrot fever, beyond what's been seen in previous years, the WHO said in a statement Tuesday (March 5). In all, the illness has affected almost 90 people, with five deaths reported among them.  Parrot fever, or psittacosis , is caused by a species of bacteria called Chlamydia psittaci (also spelled Chlamydophila psittaci ) . The bacteria can infect many mammals — including dogs, cats and horses — but most often infects birds.  Humans can catch psittacosis by inhaling airborne particles containing C. psittaci , but human-to-human transmission of the disease is very rare , with only a handful of cases ever reported. Instead, most people develop psittacosi...

Untrained bystanders can administer drone-delivered naloxone, potentially saving lives of opioid overdose victims

An onlooker – even one without prior training – can successfully administer naloxone to an overdose victim within about a minute of a drone delivering the lifesaving opioid reversal agent. That’s the key finding of my team’s newly published study. Naloxone is also known by the name brand Narcan. The study involved 17 participants responding to a simulated overdose . Each simulation included an un trained participant who portrayed a bystander , a box of naloxone deliver ed by drone , a mannequin as the overdose victim , and a panicked observer. The latter added a sense of urgency by continually shouting at the bystander throughout the simulation. Via a video playing on a screen carried by the drone, the bystander received instructions on how to use the naloxone, which is administered as a nasal spray. We timed each participant on how long it took them to correctly give the medication during this crisis moment. Our trial revealed that the average time for someon...
