ISMAILA SARR NEWS

Signs with Crystal Palace Sarr has completed a transfer to Crystal Palace from Marseille, according to his former club.

Impact Sarr is on his way out as many expected, with the attacker heading to the Premier League to join the Eagles. He served in a rotational role last season with Marseille, starting in 15 of his 23 appearances while notching three goals on 25 shots and four assists on 20 chances created. He is likely to hold a similar role with his new club, likely to be on the team sheet every match but only getting the start here and there.

Out for finale Sarr (knock) will remain out for Sunday's finale against Chelsea.

Impact Sarr opted not to play in the final three matches after Watford were confirmed to be relegated. He expects to move elsewhere, possibly in the Premier League, this summer, but he'll need his health if he wants to play a bigger role. He's struggled in two seasons at the top level, most recently totaling just five goals and two assists in 22 appearances (21 starts) this season.

Doubt against Everton Sarr is considered a doubt for Wednesday's match against Everton because of a knock, according to manager Roy Hodgson.

Impact There's a chance this isn't a knock and Sarr simply doesn't want to play in order to keep his health ahead of a likely move in the summer. It's probably the best move for him after he ended the season on somewhat of a sour note, totaling five goals and two assists in 22 appearances (21 starts), similar numbers to two seasons ago.

Assists Saturday Sarr provided one assist on one chance created during Saturday's 2-1 loss to Brentford.

Impact Sarr provided a single assist during Saturday's loss, but otherwise struggling throughout the match. The winger hasn't found much joy in a poor Watford attack lately, and is looking likely to come nowhere near the 13 goals, four assist mark he set in the 2020/21 campaign. Sarr has a brutally difficult match against Manchester City next time out.

Starts following international break Sarr took one shot (off target) and created one scoring chance during Saturday's 2-0 loss to Liverpool.

Impact Sarr had featured in both of Senegal's World Cup qualifiers against Egypt but was able to come back into the side on short notice and despite missing three matches leading up to the international break. He lasted the full 90 minutes and will be back in the lineup for Saturday's match against Leeds United.

Logs 68 minutes with Senegal Sarr (hamstring) played 68 minutes in Senegal's World Cup qualifier against Eygpt on Tuesday, ESPN.com reports.

Impact Sarr converted his penalty shootout opportunity to help Senegal to advance to the 2022 World Cup. With his hamstring issue behind him, the forward should be in the mix for Saturday's matchup with Liverpool, though he may have to settle for a spot on the bench after being away for international duty.

Out with hamstring injury Sarr has picked up a hamstring injury and could miss an extended period, confirmed manager Roy Hodgson. "It's going to keep them both out of the equation for the foreseeable future...

Impact It's yet another injury for Sarr, who missed a good chunk of time earlier this season with a knee injury. Now, it's his hamstring, which is almost a guarantee to be a two-week absence if not more. This absence likely means a return to the XI for Joao Pedro or Cucho Hernandez.

Goes unnoticed in 0-0 draw Sarr took two shots (none on target) and created two chances in the 0-0 draw with Manchester United on Saturday.

Impact Sarr was bottled up in the draw Saturday. Not only did he find little room on the flank, but he could not generate much of anything anywhere on the pitch. It could be slightly worrisome for Watford and fantasy owners though since Sarr's production has declined since his return from injury and AFCON. He will still be one of Watford's top producers, but until he can turn form, overall production levels are capped.

Quiet on Wednesday Sarr took an off target shot and crossed twice inaccurately during Wednesday's 4-1 loss to Crystal Palace.

Impact Sarr was held off the scoresheet during a fairly quiet performance on Wednesday. The attacker didn't create a chance while finishing with the second highest amount of shots and crosses on the team in the loss.

Impact Sarr assisted Emmanuel Dennis' winner in the 78th minute to give them three points on the road. That was his first assist in the season, to go with five goals. The midfielder also received his second yellow card, though. They will now host Crystal Palace on Wednesday.

Plays second half in loss Sarr had three shots (one on target) and one inaccurate cross in 45 minutes of Saturday's loss against Brighton.

Impact Sarr was brought on after the half and tried his usual magic, but Watford were already down a goal and going against a solid defensive side. The good news is that he's available to start again and provides something the team has missed in recent months. Prior to injury, he scored five goals in 12 starts.

On bench Saturday Sarr (AFCON) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Brighton.

Impact As expected, Sarr is in the team Saturday, but given his quick return, he's not being asked to start. That said, he's healthy again and the question seems to be when he'll come on against Brighton, not if.
