Burnley, Wrexham competing for Crystal Palace winger Jesurun Rak-Sakyi

Burnley and Wrexham are vying for the services of Crystal Palace winger Jesurun Rak-Sakyi, according to an exclusive report from Football League World. The 23-year-old is a target for Burnley, who aim to bolster their attacking lineup before the transfer window closes on September 1st. Rak-Sakyi, who recently returned to the Championship with Stoke City after a stint on loan at Sheffield United, brings valuable Championship experience to the table.

Wrexham, too, is monitoring the situation and is in competition with Burnley for Rak-Sakyi's signature. The winger made his international debut for Ghana, the Black Stars, in a friendly match against Mexico just before the 2026 FIFA World Cup, hosted jointly by the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Rak-Sakyi's move to the senior level of Ghanaian football marks another significant milestone in his career.

As both Burnley and Wrexham show interest, Rak-Sakyi's potential departure from Crystal Palace could become a major talking point as the transfer deadline nears.
