Spurs Seal £60m Omar Marmoush Switch From Manchester City
Tottenham Hotspur have agreed terms with Manchester City to sign forward Omar Marmoush on a season-long loan that includes a mandatory £60 million purchase clause for next summer. The 27-year-old Egyptian international travels to London on August 26 to undergo medical testing before finalizing the move.
The 27-year-old forward provides direct attacking force and central frontline coverage following a year-and-a-half stay in Manchester.

Roberto De Zerbi Gains Frontline Versatility With Marmoush
The Egyptian international gives manager Roberto De Zerbi an immediate option capable of running channels and leading the press. His ability to line up as a central striker or work off the wing complements North London’s existing setup after an opening weekend defeat at Brentford.

His arrival creates fresh competition across the forward positions alongside former Manchester City teammate Savio, who recently moved to Tottenham in an initial £75 million transfer. Marmoush adds needed depth as Spurs handle domestic cup fixtures and build squad options after finishing 17th last season.
Structure Allows Deferred £60m Spend After £100m Tonali Move
Structuring the transfer as an initial loan with a £60 million obligation allows Tottenham to delay the core purchase cost until next year. The overall fee allows Manchester City to cover the £59 million they paid Eintracht Frankfurt in January 2025, while Tottenham build on a summer window that already saw Sandro Tonali arrive for £100 million.
