Omar Marmoush to Manchester City: Deal in Place with Eintracht Frankfurt

Manchester City is on the verge of signing Egyptian forward Omar Marmoush from Eintracht Frankfurt, with reports suggesting that a deal is in place after a final round of talks.

Marmoush’s Desire to Join Manchester City

Marmoush has been open about his desire to join Manchester City, and the club has reciprocated his interest. The 24-year-old forward has been impressive this season, scoring 18 goals and providing 12 assists in 24 matches for Eintracht Frankfurt.

Five-Year Deal Agreed

According to reports, Manchester City has agreed to offer Marmoush a five-year deal, which would keep him at the club until 2028. The deal is subject to a medical and the completion of personal terms.

Transfer Fee Negotiations

While the deal is in place, the transfer fee is still a point of negotiation. Eintracht Frankfurt is demanding around €80 million (£67 million), while Manchester City is considering €50-60 million (£42-50 million) a more reasonable price.

Eintracht Frankfurt’s Stance

Eintracht Frankfurt’s sporting director, Markus Krösche, has stated that the club’s basic intention is to keep the squad together, and something extraordinary would need to happen for them to change this stance.

“I can’t rule out that there will be inquiries for our players, but our basic intention is to keep the squad together,” Krösche said.

Management’s Verdict

Manchester City’s manager, Pep Guardiola, is believed to be a fan of Marmoush’s skills and has been impressed by his performances this season. The club’s management is confident that Marmoush will be a valuable addition to the squad.

While the deal is not yet finalized, Manchester City’s interest in Omar Marmoush is clear. Fans are eagerly awaiting an official announcement, and it’s likely that we’ll see Marmoush in a Manchester City jersey soon.
