Ismaila Sarr: Why Liverpool transfer target is not in Crystal Palace squad for Man City clash

Palace welcome Man City to Selhurst Park on Friday night hoping to bounce back from defeat to Everton on the opening weekend of the new Premier League campaign.Sarr was a shock high-profile absentee from Palace’s matchday squad at the Hill Dickinson Stadium and it came after Galatasaray were reported to have tabled an offer for his services worth around £30million.And it’s the same groin issue that will keep Sarr sidelined for the visit of Man City.“Ismaila Sarr is in individual sessions,” Pierre Sage confirmed. “He is in pain with his groin – that’s why you didn’t see him [train] with us today.“But we’ll prepare him – he needs time. I thought it would be quicker but I am not medical [staff] – that’s why I wait for him, and we’ll prepare him to come back with us.”Ruled out: Ismaila SarrGet
