13 goals and 10 assists last season: Aston Villa identify 23-yr-old as a summer target

Aston Villa midfielder Jack Grealish has been linked with a move away from the club this summer, with Manchester City keen on securing his services. According to the Telegraph, the Midlands club are reluctant to sell Grealish, but they have already identified several replacements if the 25-year-old leaves. Watford attacker Ismaila Sarr is one of their preferred choices, along with Norwich City midfielder Todd Cantwell and Bayer Leverkusen winger Leon Bailey. Sarr has been linked with a move in recent months, and he could prove to be a quality long term acquisition for Dean Smith. The attacker can operate anywhere across the front three, and his versatility would be a bonus for Villa. Sarr helped Watford secure promotion to the Premier League last season, chipping in with 13 goals and 10 as...

Report: Crystal Palace ready to make club-record bid for Manchester United target

Crystal Palace are planning a late club-record bid to sign Watford winger Ismaila Sarr, a report from The Sun claims. Sarr was linked with a move to Manchester United before the international transfer deadline on October 5, but a deal failed to materialise after they were put off by the Hornets’ £40m price tag. It appears that the Red Devils have ended their pursuit of Sarr, but he could still be the subject of late transfer interest from Roy Hodgson’s side. The Eagles recruited a quality attacker in Eberechi Eze earlier this summer, but they are eyeing another frontline option before the domestic window closes on Friday. The club are willing to pay a club-record fee of around £30m for Sarr, but it is reported that the offer is likely to be rejected by the Hornets, who are f...

Report: Man Utd in intense negotiations to sign 22-yr-old from English club

Manchester United are working hard to sign the Watford winger Ismaila Sarr before the transfer window closes. The 22-year-old has been linked with Liverpool this summer but the Reds went ahead and signed it Diogo Jota from Wolverhampton Wanderers instead. According to GFFN, the Red Devils are currently in intense negotiations with Watford regarding the winger. It will be interesting to see if the two clubs can secure an agreement in the coming hours. Sarr managed to impress in the Premier League last year and he could prove to be a useful signing for Manchester United. The Premier League giants need to add more peace, flair and goals to their attack and the Watford star should prove to be an upgrade on the likes of Daniel James. Manchester United tried to sign Jadon Sancho but the deal has...

Report: Man United make approach for £40m-rated forward, player identified as Sancho alternative

According to The Telegraph, Manchester United have enquired over the availability of Watford forward Ismaila Sarr. The Red Devils have made just one signing in Donny van de Beek from Ajax this summer, but they could make more additions to the squad before the transfer deadline. It is widely known that they are interested in signing Jadon Sancho from Borussia Dortmund to bolster the right-wing spot, but so far, a deal has not materialised due to the hefty £108 price tag. The club have another one week before the international transfer window closes and it remains to be seen whether they can convince Dortmund to accept a lesser fee for the England international. Otherwise, the Red Devils will have the opportunity to trade players with EFL clubs until October 16 and The Telegraph claims ...

Report: £40m Spurs target wants Liverpool move, talks held over terms already

Liverpool started their 2020-21 Premier League campaign with a thrilling 4-3 win against Leeds United on Saturday at Anfield. The Reds are still a very strong side despite being largely inactive in the transfer market, but Jurgen Klopp probably feels the need now to make necessary incursions to add depth and quality to the side. However, the Reds may look to offload some of their players to fund moves for any potential arrival. And Klopp may need to make ruthless transfer calls. According to reports from The Sun (printed edition, 13/09/2020), Liverpool are keen to sign Ismaila Sarr from Watford this summer. The 22-year-old wants to join Liverpool and the player’s advisors have already met with Anfield chiefs to discuss terms. The Evening Standard reported last month that the Horn...
