According to Sky Sports journalist Sacha Tavolieri, Manchester City have shown strong interest in Eintracht Frankfurt forward Omar Marmoush.
Manchester City interested in Marmoush
In recent weeks, Marmoush’s agent has met with Manchester City representatives on multiple occasions, discussing the potential structure of a deal and how the player would fit into Pep Guardiola’s tactical system. City’s attacking depth has been a key factor in their recent dominance, and adding a versatile forward like Marmoush would further enhance their squad depth.
Although Arsenal have also made contact with the player, Marmoush’s preference is to join Manchester City, as he sees the club as the ideal destination to continue his development. The chance to work under Guardiola, alongside world-class teammates, is an attractive prospect for the Egyptian forward, who is keen to test himself at the highest level of English football.
Frankfurt’s asking price for Marmoush is no less than €60 Million
Reportedly, Manchester City have offered Marmoush a five-year contract, while Frankfurt are demanding no less than €60 million for the transfer.
Meanwhile, Liverpool are also closely monitoring Marmoush’s situation.
Should they fail to reach a contract extension agreement with Mohamed Salah, Marmoush is seen as a potential replacement.
Marmoush as a potential replacement after Salah’s departure?
So far this season, Marmoush has made 24 appearances for Frankfurt across all competitions, scoring 18 goals and providing 12 assists.
His impressive performances have earned him a market value of €60 million, according to Transfermarkt.
Will Manchester City Secure Marmoush’s Signature?
With multiple top clubs interested, Marmoush’s future remains uncertain. While his preference is Manchester City, Frankfurt’s high asking price could complicate negotiations. If City push forward with their pursuit, they may need to offload a player to make room for the Egyptian forward. Meanwhile, Liverpool’s interest adds another layer of intrigue, especially if Salah departs. The coming weeks will be crucial in determining where Marmoush will land next season.
