Senegalese star Ismaïla Sarr Ready for Liverpool Clash

Ismaila Sarr has returned to full fitness and looks set to start for Crystal Palace against Liverpool on Saturday.

The Senegalese winger missed action since August 31 after suffering a hamstring injury in the Premier League clash against Aston Villa.

Doctors estimated a three-to-four-week recovery period, and Sarr has now met that timeline.

He trained fully this week and appears ready to help the Eagles in a crucial Matchday 6 fixture at Selhurst Park, kicking off at 2:00 PM GMT.

Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner confirmed Sarr’s progress during his pre-match press conference.

“Ismaïla has had a full week of training,” Glasner said. “I don’t know if he can play 90 or 100 minutes.

I don’t know how intense the match will be, but he’s ready to start.”

Sarr’s return gives Palace a significant boost as they aim to maintain their strong start to the season.

The Eagles currently sit fifth in the Premier League and are chasing another positive result against one of England’s top sides.

The 26-year-old winger has made a strong impact since joining Palace, scoring three goals and providing one assist in six appearances this season.

His pace, directness, and creativity will be key assets against a Liverpool defence that has shown vulnerabilities this campaign.

Ismaila Sarr also enjoys facing the Reds. In seven previous meetings, he has scored four goals and assisted twice, proving himself a consistent threat to Arne Slot’s side.

His ability to exploit space on the counterattack could play a decisive role in Saturday’s encounter.

Palace hopes Sarr’s return will inspire a strong attacking performance and help them extend their impressive early-season form.

With confidence high and momentum on their side, Glasner’s men aim to send a strong statement against one of the Premier League’s title contenders.
