On Friday, L’Equipe reported that Crystal Palace has reached a preliminary agreement with Marseille to sign Ismaïla Sarr this summer.
It was expected that the forward would complete his move to the Premier League club within a few days.
Although this has not yet happened, the deal for the 26-year-old to join Crystal Palace is still likely, according to Wiw Sport.
All parties involved have reportedly agreed for Sarr to join the Eagles during this transfer window, with the transfer becoming increasingly imminent.
Wiw Sport claims that their sources indicate the Senegal international is already in England to finalize the transfer details.
They also report that the former Watford player is scheduled for a medical examination with Crystal Palace on Friday. No reasons were given for the slight delay despite his arrival in England, but it is confirmed that he will ‘definitely leave Marseille to join Crystal Palace’.
Sarr is expected to sign a five-year contract with Crystal Palace once he completes the medical. This transfer will mark his return to England, a year after he left Watford for the Ligue 1 club.
