Man City and Eintracht Frankfurt reach verbal agreement over Omar Marmoush transfer The two clubs have come to an agreement for the 25-year-old Egyptian forward.
Manchester City have reached a verbal agreement with Eintracht Frankfurt for the transfer of Egypt forward Omar Marmoush.
City have been in talks with Eintracht and were initially concerned that the German club’s challenge for a Champions League place – they are currently third in the Bundesliga – would make it hard to do a deal.
But they have settled on a price, likely to be over £50m, for the versatile Marmoush, who can operate as a centre-forward, but also in deeper and wider roles, which means he could deputise for Erling Haaland or play alongside City’s top scorer.
The 25-year-old, who is the second highest scorer in the Bundesliga, is set to become City’s most expensive January signing and their biggest buy since Josko Gvardiol arrived for £77m in 2023.
