Egyptian striker nears Man City move
Manchester City are on the brink of securing a deal for in-form Eintracht Frankfurt forward, Omar Marmoush. While the two clubs have agreed on personal terms, negotiations over the transfer fee are still ongoing.
Marmoush has been a revelation in the Bundesliga this season, netting 13 goals and showcasing his versatility across the frontline. His impressive form has caught the eye of City manager Pep Guardiola, who sees the Egyptian as a potential replacement for the departed Julian Alvarez.
The 25-year-old is keen on a move to the Etihad Stadium and is eager to work under Guardiola. However, with no release clause in his contract and Frankfurt demanding a hefty fee of $82 million, negotiations are expected to be tough. City, on the other hand, value the player at around $52-$62 million.
The Premier League giants are looking to bolster their attacking options following a disappointing start to the season. Injuries and a lack of investment in the summer transfer window have left Guardiola's side struggling to compete for major honors.
