Eintracht Frankfurt on Friday left forward Omar Marmoush out of their matchday squad for the home clash with Borussia Dortmund due to “transfer talks” with Manchester City.
Marmoush has been heavily linked with a winter move to City after a stellar first half of the season.
The 25-year-old has scored 15 goals in 17 league games, one fewer than leader Harry Kane, and laid on 10 assists.
“Eintracht Frankfurt is currently in talks with another club for the transfer of Omar Marmoush. The player is therefore not part of the team today,” the club wrote on social media just hours before the Dortmund clash.
Speaking with DAZN before the game, Frankfurt sporting director Markus Kroesche confirmed Marmoush was set “to leave us in the direction of Manchester City.”
“It looks like Omar will be leaving us and that’s why he’s not in the squad.
“We’ve been in regular discussions with Manchester City for the past few days.”
The Egyptian arrived in Frankfurt on a free transfer from Wolfsburg in the summer of 2023.
German and international media reported the struggling English champions, who sit 12 points behind leaders Liverpool in the Premier League, are set to pay up to 80 million euros ($82 million) for Marmoush.
In a shocking turn of events, Frankfurt has dropped star striker Aymen Marmoush for their upcoming match against Dortmund. This decision has sparked speculation that Marmoush could be on the move, with reports confirming talks with Manchester City.
Marmoush, who has been in scintillating form for Frankfurt this season, scoring 12 goals in 15 appearances, was left out of the squad for unspecified reasons. The decision to drop him against a tough opponent like Dortmund has raised eyebrows among fans and pundits alike.
Adding fuel to the fire are reports linking Marmoush with a move to Manchester City. The Premier League giants are said to be interested in signing the talented forward, with negotiations reportedly underway.
Frankfurt’s decision to drop Marmoush and the rumors of a potential move to Manchester City have set the football world abuzz. Will Marmoush make the switch to the Etihad Stadium? Only time will tell. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
