At 28 years old, Ismaila Sarr has just completed his standout season yet, after joining Crystal Palace from Marseille in the summer of 2024. His 2025-26 campaign proved to be the most productive of his career so far.

Across 45 appearances in all competitions, Sarr netted 21 goals and contributed one assist, playing a pivotal role as Palace lifted the UEFA Europa Conference League trophy.

His exceptional performances have now caught the attention of Manchester United, who are actively considering an unexpected transfer swoop for the Senegalese winger. The Red Devils, under the leadership of INEOS ownership, have consistently favored players with Premier League pedigree—evidenced by successful signings like Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo.

Sarr himself has expressed enthusiasm for the potential move to Old Trafford, previously calling a transfer to Manchester United his “dream move.”
