Nice
Born in Nice, Sarr joined local side OGC Nice at the age of five. He spent the next 12 years in the club's academy before making his Ligue 1 debut for the club on 14 August 2016 against Rennes, aged 17. It was a dream debut for Sarr as he scored the winning goal for his team in the 60th minute, heading home from a Jean-Michaël Seri free-kick. In doing so, he became the second youngest player to ever score on debut in Ligue 1, behind Nigerian international Bartholomew Ogbeche. After the match, Sarr dedicated his goal to the victims of the 2016 Nice terror attack. Prior to kick-off a minute's silence was observed in memory of the victims with both Nice and Rennes wearing unique commemorative shirts bearing the names of those who had died. On 7 November 2016, Sarr signed his first professional contract with Nice.
France national youth teams
In September 2016, Sarr was named in the 20-man France U18 squad by manager Bernard Diomede for the 2016 Limogese Tournament.
