Player arrives in England to complete Crystal Palace transfer – Eagles medical scheduled on Friday

On Friday, L’Equipe reported Crystal Palace have agreed a deal in principle with Marseille over signing Ismaïla Sarr this summer.

It was also said the forward should complete his move to the Premier League side in the next few days.

That hasn’t happened so far, but the deal to take the 26-year-old to Crystal Palace should go through if Wiw Sport is to be believed.

It’s claimed all parties have found an agreement for Sarr to join the Eagles in this window, and they are ‘getting closer and closer’ to making the transfer official.

Wiw Sport state this is their own information and sources have informed them the Senegal international is already in England to carry out the transfer formalities.

They add the former Watford man is scheduled to undergo a medical with Crystal Palace on Friday. There’s no explanation provided as to why there’s a slight delay, even after the player arrived in England, but he’ll ‘definitely leave Marseille to join Crystal Palace’.

Sarr will sign a five-year deal at Crystal Palace once he completes the examinations. This deal will see him return to England, a year after he left Watford for the Ligue 1 side.
