Frankfurt drop Marmoush against Dortmund, confirm Man City talks

SPORTS 17.01.2025

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.

Text size:

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.
