Liverpool have reignited their interest in Crystal Palace winger Ismaila Sarr. Sarr was previously on the Anfield club’s transfer radar in 2020 during his time with Watford before the then Premier League champions signed Diogo Jota.

Sarr is currently embroiled in a stand-off with Palace as he looks to seal a move to Galatasaray before next week’s summer transfer window deadline. But Sarr could still seal a move away from Selhurst Park with Andoni Iraola’s side engaged in tentative discussions as an alternative to Yankuba Minteh.

Liverpool saw successive bids for the injured Brighton wide man rejected last week with the player’s valuation understood to have been set at £70 million. A move for out-of-favour Paris Saint-Germain forward Bradley Barcola remains Liverpool’s top market priority before the September 1 cut-off.
