Pape Sarr urged his son, new Real Sociedad signing Mamadou Sarr, to give everything in the Basque Country during a tour of Anoeta. According to Diario Vasco, the moment was captured in a video shared by the club.

The former player, who enjoyed a notable career in European football, drew on his own spell at Deportivo Alavés in the Second Division. He recalled liking the city and enjoying Second Division fixtures.

He spent only six months in the Basque Country before the Lens coach called him back. Even so, he said he quickly grasped the local playing ethos and the demands of supporters.

His message to Mamadou was clear, Basque supporters expect total commitment and players should enjoy it while giving everything on the pitch. He framed every game as a battle that must be fought.

With that family backing, the new Real defender now takes on the responsibility to deliver at Anoeta, starting this weekend against Espanyol.
