  "summary": "Omar Marmoush has joined Tottenham Hotspur on loan from Manchester City for the 2024/25 season, with an obligation to make the deal permanent for £60m next summer. The 27-year-old Egyptian international will wear the number 22 jersey, according to Daily Post Nigeria. He joins former City teammate Savio, who moved to north London for an initial fee of £75m.\n\nMarmoush signed for Manchester City from Eintracht Frankfurt for £59m in January 2025 and has scored 16 goals in 62 games for the club in all competitions. He made 13 of his 21 league appearances last term from the bench, with Erling Haaland the club's preferred central striker.\n\nTottenham have spent more than £312m in the transfer window this summer, with other signings including Mateus Fernandes, Sandro Tonali, Jan Paul van Hecke, Marcos Senesi, Andy Robertson, and goalkeeper Martin Dubravka, some on free transfers. Roberto De Zerbi's side had a disastrous start to the new season, losing 3-0 at Brentford, but bounced back with a 5-1 win over Charlton Athletic in the League Cup.",
