OP postrer needs interior french drain before ANY FUTHER WORK
with a sump draining to a pump or ideally daylight
As we have discussed on here before, drains belong OUTSIDE the wall.
But still below the footings. * A perimeter drain 18" below grade will
do a little good-- but an interior perimeter drain will do more.

An interior drain system is a huge job. I would not go there because
1 time he had some moisture where he penetrated the slab.
