Amin Sarr (born 11 March 2001) is a Swedish footballer who plays as a forward for Eredivisie club Heerenveen.

Club career

Malmö FF

Sarr signed his first professional contract with Malmö FF on 23 April 2020 in advance of the Allsvenskan season.[1] He made his professional debut on 16 July, and scored his first goal on 2 August, in his first start, in a 3–0 win over IFK Göteborg. The following week, Sarr signed a contract extension to keep him at the club an additional two years, through 2023.[2] Sarr made 17 appearances for the Allsvenskan champions in his first season, including six starts, scoring one goal. Sarr made just three appearances in the 2021 Allsvenskan with Malmö FF before being loaned out to fellow Allsvenskan side Mjällby AIF to seek increased playing time.[3]

Loan to Mjällby AIF

Sarr was loaned to Mjällby AIF on 16 June 2021, and made his debut for the club two days later, scoring twice in a 3–2 defeat to IFK Göteborg.[4]

Heerenveen

On 31 January 2022, Sarr signed a contract with Dutch club Heerenveen until mid-2025.[5] He scored his first goal for the club against Heracles Almelo, scoring the first goal in a 2-0 win.[6]

International career

Sarr was recalled to the Sweden national under-21 football team for the first time during their 2021 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualifying matches in October of 2020. He made his debut in the 10–0 defeat of Armenia, scoring a goal.[7] Sarr is also eligible to represent The Gambia internationally, as his twin brother, goalkeeper Lamin, accepted a call-up with their senior team in the summer of 2021.[8]
