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.

Assists in road win Sarr assisted one goal from four chances created, took one off-target shot, sent in two crosses (one accurate), made one tackle (won) and picked up a yellow card in Saturday's 1-0...

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.

FEBRUARY 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returns from international duty Sarr (not injury related) rejoined the team ahead of Saturday's matchup with Brighton & Hove Albion.

Impact Having just returned from winning the Africa Cup of Nations with Senegal, Sarr may not be ready to immediately jump back into the starting XI for Watford. Especially considering he was dealing with a knee problem before leaving which has kept him out of domestic competition since Nov. 20 against Manchester United. If he does play, Sarr could be eased into action with an appearance off the bench but should be a mainstay on the pitch moving forward.

FEBRUARY 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Back from injury, still at AFCON Sarr (knee) came off the bench and scored in 32 minutes of Sunday's AFCON win against Equatorial Guinea.

Impact Sarr is healthy again, but he'll still miss the next two league matches because Senegal are in the AFCON semi-finals. While that's a positive update for Watford, it's still worth noting Sarr will likely see significant time over the next week with Senegal despite being out since late November because of a knee injury. The hope is that he doesn't pick up a new issue in his return.

Joins up with Senegal Sarr has apparently recovered from his knee injury and has joined Senegal ahead of their AFCON quarter-final.

Impact This is a positive update on Sarr with the hope being that he isn't returning too soon from injury. Either way, he probably won't be ready for Watford's next couple league matches given AFCON and his long layoff from injury.

Away for AFCON Sarr is with Senegal for the upcoming African Cup of Nations despite dealing with a knee injury.

Impact It looks like Senegal got their way with Sarr, who isn't healthy. Hopefully, they don't push him to play too soon, as Sarr hasn't played since November because of a knee injury and the original hope was for him to return at some point in January. Now, injury or not, he'll be out until February.

Ismaila Sarr: Watford winger out for at least a month with knee ligament injury Ismaila Sarr was injured in the 4-1 victory against Manchester United in the Premier League on November 20; Senegal international to undergo...

NOVEMBER 30, 2021 • SKY.COM

Out extended period with knee injury Sarr has a knee ligament injury and will require a further scan in around a month, according to the team.

Impact This is a massive blow for Watford, who were hoping to only miss Sarr for a game or two. Cucho Hernandez came into the XI last match and will likely continue on the wing in Sarr's place. It's unfortunate for Sarr, who already had five goals in 12 matches prior to injury.

Out against Leicester Sarr will miss Sunday's trip to Leicester City after suffering a knee injury last weekend.

Impact It remains to be seen how long Sarr will be out, but he's definitely out Sunday. It's a tough blow for Watford, as Sarr has been the team's best player for a couple years and already five goals on the season. Someone like Cucho Hernandez or Joao Pedro will likely enter the XI on the wing.

Scores, leaves injured Saturday Sarr bagged the second goal but was forced off in the 69th minute of Saturday's match against Man United after a poor challenge.

Impact The hope is that this isn't anything major for Sarr, as he's been Watford's best player this season. He scored his sixth goal of the season prior to injury and will be assessed in the coming days after going a full 90 in all but one of the prior 11 contests.
