# Everton: Toffees could make late Ismaila Sarr move

**[Journalist Ryan Taylor](https://twitter.com/RyanTaylorSport) has shared his belief that [Everton](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/everton-fc-news/) could make a late summer move to sign Ismaila Sarr.**

### The Lowdown: Everton interested in Sarr

As per [The Daily Mirror](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/aston-villa-watford-ismaila-sarr-27805126), the Goodison Park outfit are among a number of [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) clubs who have been interested in signing Sarr, along with Manchester United, Leeds United and Crystal Palace.

Aston Villa had a bid accepted by Watford for the winger, but [that deal is now off](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/aston-villa-watford-ismaila-sarr-27805126), potentially opening the door for the Merseyside club to swoop in.

### The Latest: One to keep an eye on

Speaking to [GiveMeSport](https://www.givemesport.com/88052218-everton-30m-freak-could-make-late-move-to-goodison-park), Taylor has said that Sarr could still move before the transfer window closes, with Frank Lampard’s team one to especially ‘keep an eye on’.

Following the collapse of the 24-year-old’s move to Villa, the reporter stated: *“I* *think Sarr is a player that could move elsewhere in the Premier League in the final weeks of the window. Everton are one that I would keep an eye on.”*

### The Verdict: Exciting

After the capture of striker Neal Maupay from Brighton and Hove Albion, it is certainly exciting for Everton supporters to hear that Lampard could further bolster his forward line with a move for Sarr.

[Hailed](https://www.hertfordshiremercury.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/ben-foster-watford-ismaila-sarr-6681008) as a ‘game-winner’ and ‘a bit of a freak’ by former Hornets team-mate Ben Foster for his [blistering pace](https://www.google.ie/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwi14d3bvun5AhXQgVwKHfxuAckQFnoECC8QAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sportskeeda.com%2Ffootball%2F5-fastest-players-premier-league-moment-zaha-traore-sarr&usg=AOvVaw1_uXxhrN-NmeGSNengeSS5), Sarr has scored [10](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ismaila-sarr/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/410225/plus/0?saison=&verein=1010&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) goals and supplied [eight](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ismaila-sarr/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/410225/plus/0?saison=&verein=1010&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) assists in the Premier League

[Everton news!](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/everton-news-7/)

He is already off the mark in the Championship this season too, with [a goal and an assist](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ismaila-sarr/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/410225/plus/0?saison=&verein=1010&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) to his name.

Having only scored a mere [three](https://www.premierleague.com/tables) goals in their opening four league games this term, coupled with the [injury](https://www.google.ie/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwja-Yz7vun5AhVNSsAKHR8mCzsQFnoECBcQAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftalksport.com%2Ffootball%2F1163974%2Feverton-dominic-calvert-lewin-injury-news-frank-lampard-striker-transfer%2F&usg=AOvVaw0GfUS1s2Jm5SJm0EVA2Mt8) to Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Everton will be desperate to add some more firepower to their ranks, and Sarr could be the perfect player for them target before the transfer deadline.
