Geeetting a feeling Sarr to Palace is a growing possibility. Josh Bowler should come in if it happens.
Have to see whether the Zaha>Chelsea move actually happens surely. Unless Palace want him in anyway? Bowler would be a great replacement for Sarr and the kind of player we should be signing. But given he’d cost £3-4m, I’d hope we are able to bring in a couple more should some Sarr cash be forthcoming.
Sometimes I feel we'd genuinely be better off cashing on Sarr and using the money to rebuild (surely we'd be able to do that considering we've been given money for Kamara to stay afloat), but then again sometimes he does stupid things like score from his own half and we all remember how good he can be!
Of course, there are two clubs involved in every transfer, and the fact that he's been here for 2 Championship summer transfer windows and still nobody has signed him tells its own story
We'll get that young Nigerian lad from Udinese, most likely. Think his name is Isaac Good, or something.
Probably our best finisher at the club still! A beautiful goal indeed, JP did a lot of good work to set it up, but Sarr still had so much to do
From Abdellah Boulma, a French journo who I believe was the first to break the news of Villa's bid for Sarr The Isma*la #Saar track is still relevant on the side of Crystal Palace. Ongoing negotiations. Mentions a €22m bid which, after Villa had a €28m bid apparently accepted, is quite insulting!
Selling for anything would be a bit of a kick in the teeth if we don't get anyone in, but anything less than €28m is an insult
The 22m bid he mentions is the one reportedly rejected from Palace two weeks ago. I think he’s just quote tweeted the tweet about that bid to indicate that negotiations have continued throughout the intervening period.
In the studio after Villa’s game tonight. Agbonlahor has just said he’d like to see them resurrect a move for Sarr because ‘he wants to come to Villa, is full of running and is fantastic playing on the left wing’ And I imagine he’s taking home a 4 figure fee at least for his input tonight.
