2025 Fantasy Outlook
Sarr came to Crystal Palace to try and replace the production of the departing Michael Olise. While he didn't quite match those numbers, he was still a much-needed spark in the attack. He appeared in every match and tallied 14 goal contributions, just two fewer than Eberechi Eze. Sarr quickly established himself as the second attacking midfielder in manager Oliver Glasner's 3-4-2-1 formation, a role that gives him plenty of time on the ball. After struggling with Watford in the Premier League a few years prior, it seems like Sarr finally found a perfect spot and more success in 2025/26 is expected with a similar role likely.
Avoids tear, out at least two games
Sarr (ankle) has avoided a complete tear in his ankle but is still expected to miss at least two games and is set for further assessment, according to manager Oliver Glasner. "Ismaila Sarr is out for this game. Honestly, it doesn't look too bad, but he will definitely miss both games this week. There are some issues with his ankle ligaments. They are not completely torn, but there are some issues with the ankle very swollen. But we are still hopeful, and I know our medical department, how hard they are working. We have hope that he could return before AFCON, but we have to do further assessments and, of course, have to see how the next days are going for him."
ANALYSIS
Sarr was likely to miss a few games of action, and that has been confirmed, as the attacker is hitting the sidelines due to his ankle injury. This will result in the loss of a regular starter for the club, as he has yet to miss a start or appearance all season when fit. He will head in for more assessment in the coming days as he tries to prepare to travel with Senegal for AFCoN, although that will depend on his development and testing in the coming weeks.
