Is this Spinosaurus tooth real?

I rarely buy fossils and don’t know much about them but I was in a small fossil museum in a village in England called “Robin Hood’s Bay” and I saw this Spinosaurus Tooth for sale and I’m wondering if it is real. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Short answer:
Yes.
Long answer:

Yes, this is a spinosaurid tooth. But we can't really assign spinosaurid teeth from Morocco to the genus of Spinosaurus since there are likely more than one species present and potentially also more than one genus (such as Sigilmassasaurus).

Thank you so much for the reply.
