Ismaïla Sarr Transfer from Crystal Palace to Liverpool
Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish explained that Liverpool made an offer for Ismaïla Sarr that was too small and came late, which meant a transfer would not be completed this summer. In comments reported by The Athletic, Parish stated that given the amount Liverpool bid, they could not have seriously considered that a deal would be completed, and that they did not make another offer for him. Parish also said that a club selling players for £90 million and then bidding half of that amount for a replacement is not a viable transaction. He suggested that Ismaïla Sarr wanted to leave and that Crystal Palace would have attempted to facilitate the transfer if the offer had not been made five days before the window closed and if the financial terms were acceptable. Sarr's agent, Diomansy Kamara, accused Palace of treating the player as a "commodity."

Liverpool made a verbal offer of just under £40m for Ismaila Sarr, which was rejected by Crystal Palace. It is understood that Liverpool never reached the £50m sum for Sarr that other outlets have claimed was proposed. According to Football Insider, Liverpool will consider another attempt to sign Ismaila Sarr in January after a deal was not agreed before the summer deadline. Crystal Palace would want over £50m to sell the Senegal international, and that price could rise in January. Palace boss Pierre Sage said Sarr needs to recover because he is and always was injured, adding that he is still their player and they are happy with that. Sage also said Sarr has to digest the disappointment of the failed transfer, as it is a dream for many players to play for such a club, and that while an opportunity existed, the transfer did not happen. In a statement, Sarr's agent has insisted that African players deserve respect after the forward and Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara did not complete major Premier League transfers.
