Will Omar Marmoush leave Eintracht Frankfurt before the Bundesliga game against Borussia Dortmund on Friday? This is the question that concerns Bundesliga fans after the English Week. As of Thursday afternoon, there was still no agreement in sight in the transfer negotiations between the Eagles and Manchester City. In the evening, however, a breakthrough seemed to have occurred.
Update January 17, 6:41 a.m.: According to “Sky” reporter Florian Plettenberg, Man City and the SGE have verbally agreed on the modalities of a transfer for Marmoush. The transfer package should be 80 million euros including bonus payments. According to the pay-TV broadcaster, official documents are still missing to complete the transfer. Attacker Marmoush is to receive a contract with the Skyblues until 2029, the medical check has not yet been scheduled – it may take place on Friday.
Man City wants its designated new signing not to be in Frankfurt’s squad against Borussia Dortmund on Friday evening in order not to jeopardize the deal in the last few meters. “The Athletic” had previously also written about an oral agreement between the negotiating clubs, without naming a specific sum.
The French newspaper “RMC Sport” had already written about this agreement on Thursday afternoon. In the evening, transfer reporter Fabrizio Romano jumped on the bandwagon with his well-known “Here We Go”.
In any case, there are increasing signs that Marmoush played his last game in the Frankfurt jersey on Tuesday against SC Freiburg. However, another game for the Egyptian in the Bundesliga cannot be completely ruled out.
In any case, it can be said that Marmoush’s move to the Premier League is imminent. Man City recently made an offer of 70 million euros and Eintracht insisted on a transfer package of over 80 million euros. If finalization is now expected in this area, Marmoush will be the second most expensive sale in the Frankfurt club’s history after Randal Kolo Muani.
