Sarr Agent: African Players 'Commodities' in Transfers

Ismaïla Sarr's agent has claimed African players are treated like 'commodities' after Crystal Palace rejected Liverpool's approach for the Senegal forward.

Diomansy Kamara, representing the 28-year-old, stated that players must 'be heard' in transfer negotiations. The Monaco club also recently halted Lamine Camara's move to Chelsea, adding to concerns about how African players are treated in transfer deals.

Palace, who insist Sarr is not for sale, rejected Liverpool's bid last week. Sarr, last season's top scorer for Palace, missed the opening two matches against Everton and Manchester City due to injury and subsequently deleted all references to the club from his social media accounts. forestarrow.help
