Would Marmoush joining Tottenham be a masterstroke or risk?
Tottenham are working on a deal for Omar Marmoush, but what could the Man City forward bring to the north London team?
Tottenham are in talks to sign Manchester City forward Omar Marmoush, with the Egyptian currently playing for City after joining them from Eintracht Frankfurt in 2025. The move would be the latest addition to Roberto De Zerbi's squad as the north London club looks to exceed a £300m summer spending target. Tottenham has already spent £229.5m on Jan Paul van Hecke and midfielders Sandro Tonali and Mateus Fernandes, with the agreement of a £75m deal for Manchester City winger Savinho strengthening their attack.
Marmoush, who scored 20 goals and had 13 assists across all competitions before leaving Germany, could provide a skillset that differs from the existing forwards at Spurs. Former Manchester City defender Nedum Onuoha has praised Marmoush's ability to run in behind and link play, suggesting that his experience playing off another attacker could create opportunities for Spurs' forwards.
