Ismaïla Sarr reportedly pushing for Crystal Palace exit amid Liverpool interest
Senegalese international Ismaïla Sarr is reportedly seeking to leave Crystal Palace before the summer transfer window closes. The winger, who plays in South London, is said to be determined to move, with Liverpool emerging as his preferred destination. Interest in Sarr surfaced before the season began, but no offers have yet materialized to facilitate a transfer. Galatasaray reportedly made inquiries, and while there were rumors of Sarr refusing to train or play, these were disputed, with his absence from recent matches against Everton and Manchester City attributed to a groin injury. Sarr has also removed Crystal Palace-related posts from his Instagram account, retaining only those featuring the Senegalese national team, a move interpreted as a clear signal of his desire to depart. Crystal Palace, however, is reportedly unwilling to sell their forward unless they receive a substantial offer, with demands set at over 70 million pounds. Saudi club Al-Ittihad has reportedly withdrawn its interest, deeming the operation too complicated, which could strengthen Liverpool's negotiating position. For Crystal Palace, Sarr's departure, especially given his importance to their offense, would create a challenge, as they would need to quickly find a replacement.
