Eintracht Frankfurt are asking €80 million for Omar Marmoush, who has emerged as Manchester City's top transfer target this winter, as per Sky Sports Germany. The Egyptian forward was expected to be available for around €40 million earlier this year.
The report reveals that the club will not consider any deal less than €80 million. Marmoush, who joined Eintracht Frankfurt in July 2023 on a free transfer from VfL Wolfsburg, has been in stellar form this season. The Egyptian attacker has scored 18 and assisted 12 goals in 24 appearances across all competitions for Frankfurt this season. Only his compatriot Mohamed Salah has more goal contributions in Europe's top five leagues this season (38).
Due to his consistent performance, the 25-year-old has garnered the attention of top European clubs including Pep Guardiola's Manchester City. The Spanish manager is keen to recruit reinforcements in his line-up ahead of the second half of the 2024-25 campaign. He sees Omar Marmoush as the consistent goalscorer who can fill the void created by Julian Alvarez's departure.
