His tally also equals the highest ever by a Palace player in a Premier League campaign, matching Andy Johnson’s 2004-05 record.

After collecting his awards following the final whistle against Arsenal, Sarr thanked supporters, saying: “Thank you to the fans! It’s my dream, personally – thank you!”

The African's impact has also been felt in Europe, where he has become the Eagles' all-time leading scorer in continental competition with nine goals.

He is also on course to finish as the UEFA Conference League’s top scorer for 2025-26.
