Crystal Palace have set a €60 million asking price for attacker Ismaila Sarr following an ambitious approach from Galatasaray, according to journalist Yagiz Sabuncuoglu.
The Super Lig champions have identified Sarr as a marquee target to strengthen their attack before the transfer deadline.
Galatasaray recently submitted an official opening bid to test Palace’s resolve, but they immediately rejected the proposal and have now set a €60m valuation.
Sarr’s importance to Palace cannot be overstated after an outstanding 2025/26 campaign.
The ‘phenomenal‘ Senegal international finished as the club’s top scorer, netting 21 goals in 45 appearances across all competitions.
He was especially pivotal in Europe, scoring nine goals to help Palace lift the Europa Conference League trophy.
With three years left on Sarr’s contract, Palace are under no pressure to sell. Manager Pierre Sage is keen to retain the forward.
Meeting Palace’s €60m valuation would pose a major financial challenge for Galatasaray, even though they have shown significant ambition in recent transfer windows.
Sarr is expected to continue playing a central role in Palace’s first-team plans unless Galatasaray return with a much improved offer that meets Palace’s threshold.
Galatasaray are also working on a move for Pape Matar Sarr, but their €18m offer was rejected due to Tottenham’s €25m valuation.
Ahead of a demanding campaign due to the added burden of European football, Palace are pursuing their own signings, with Auxerre midfielder Kevin Danois among their top targets.
