Manchester United have reportedly set their sights on Crystal Palace attacker Ismaila Sarr. The 28-year-old has been a standout performer for Crystal Palace, helping the team win the UEFA Europa Conference League last season. Sarr scored nine goals in the European competition and 21 goals across all competitions, showcasing his impressive goal-scoring abilities.
Manchester United are believed to be keen on the player, with the club already making an enquiry about his availability. Sarr's versatility will be a major attraction for Manchester United, as he can operate on the flanks and in the centre, making him an ideal utility man for the team. His physical and technical attributes make him well-suited to the Premier League.
Manchester United currently have Benjamin Sesko at their disposal, but the club is looking to add more depth to their attack. Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee are expected to be sold this summer, leaving a gap that Sarr could potentially fill. With the Senegal international's ability to share the goal-scoring burden with Sesko, he could be the perfect addition to Manchester United's attack.
It remains to be seen whether Crystal Palace is willing to sanction Sarr's departure. The 28-year-old may feel that this is his final opportunity to join an elite club, and the prospect of playing for Manchester United will undoubtedly be attractive. Crystal Palace, however, will look to build on a successful season and selling one of their best attacking players will not be ideal for them.
Manchester United will need to submit an attractive proposal to convince Crystal Palace to part with Sarr. The Senegal international is well-settled in English football and will look to hit the ground running and make an immediate impact at Old Trafford.
