Manchester United are closely examining the possibility of signing Crystal Palace winger Ismaila Sarr in the final days of the transfer window. The Senegalese player has attracted attention from Turkish Süper Lig champions Galatasaray, who were prepared to pay around £30 million for his services. However, Sarr has given his consent for a move to Galatasaray, citing the chance to play in the Champions League as a motivating factor.
Despite this, there is a substantial price difference between Galatasaray's valuation and Palace's, with the latter insisting on a transfer fee of around £50 million for the 28-year-old. According to TEAMtalk, Manchester United is keeping a close watch on the situation and has the option to pursue Sarr if he expresses a desire to leave Crystal Palace.
The Red Devils see Sarr as a valuable asset to bolster their attack, and believe he would adapt well to the Premier League. Last season, Sarr tallied 21 goals in 45 appearances for Palace, and was honored as the Conference League Player of the Season following the club's victory in the competition. Notably, Sarr was omitted from the initial Premier League lineup against Everton, with Palace citing an injury as the reason for his absence.
