syntax error, unexpected '$url' (T_VARIABLE), expecting ')'

Hi i encountered this issue when i tried to use the webhook client, i've been googling for some time and i saw the answer was just to make sure we are using PHP 7.4, and i'm using PHP 7.4.

it happens on the file vendor/spatie/laravel-webhook-client/src/WebhookClientServiceProvider.php first is on the line 34 with $url, second is on the line 38, $config. I am using PHP 7.4.21 but still unable to get this through unless i change the fn to normal function . kindly advice.

Our tests prove that the package doesn't contain a syntax error. Notice that the latest version of the package requires PHP 8.

thank you for the advice. I'm using PHP 8 everywhere for this webhook package however it still has this error message. however, this syntax error doesn't affect the webhook process after I updated to use PHP 8.

Probably web requests are not handled via PHP 8: https://freek.dev/php-version
