# Crystal Palace: Fans react to Ismaila Sarr links

**Crystal Palace could revisit their interest in Watford winger Ismaila Sarr this summer, according to [The Sun](https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/15554853/vieira-arsenal-transfer-nketiah-crystal-palace/)’s Alan Nixon, and a number of Eagles supporters have been sharing their thoughts on the rumours on social media.**

Palace had a [£25m bid turned down for Sarr last season](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11686/12105680/ismaila-sarr-watford-reject-25m-bid-from-crystal-palace) following the Hornets’ relegation to the Championship.

The 23-year-old starred at Vicarage Road in the second tier during the 2020/21 campaign, with his [13 goals and 10 assists](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ismaila-sarr/leistungsdaten/spieler/410225/plus/0?saison=2020) proving vital to helping Watford seal an immediate return to the top flight.

According to [The Sun](https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/15554853/vieira-arsenal-transfer-nketiah-crystal-palace/), the Eagles are looking for a winger and could go back in for the Senegal international, who still has [three years remaining](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ismaila-sarr/profil/spieler/410225) on his Watford contract.

Palace have also been [linked](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-9760515/Crystal-Palace-begin-talks-bring-Man-Citys-7m-rated-talented-young-forward-Morgan-Rogers.html) with Manchester City winger Morgan Rogers, with Patrick Vieira recently making Michael Olise his [first signing in charge at Selhurst Park](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/57768231).

**“I know that the source is The Sun but taking a talented player like Ismaila Sarr away from Watford and adding him to our team that has Zaha, Eze, Olise, and Benteke would be absolutely beautiful.”**
