Tottenham confirm Marmoush signing in £60m deal
Tottenham Hotspur have completed the signing of Egyptian forward Omar Marmoush from Manchester City, finalizing a deal on Thursday that adds another major attacking option to their revamped squad. The transfer, a seasonlong loan with an obligation to make the move permanent next summer, was confirmed after Marmoush successfully completed his medical and signed his contract.
The agreement structures the transfer as a guaranteed base fee of 50 million pounds with an additional 10 million pounds in potential add-ons. Manchester City will receive at least 55 million pounds of the total 60 million pound package, as a portion of the bonuses is guaranteed. The London club will sign Marmoush to a four-year contract with a club option to extend for an additional year, potentially keeping him at the club until 2031. The transaction includes no sell-on clause for his former club, Eintracht Frankfurt.
Marmoush, 27, expressed his enthusiasm for the move. "It feels amazing to be here. I'm so excited to get started with the team and I can't wait to meet the fans," he said. "Tottenham Hotspur is one of the biggest clubs in England, if not the world, and the project was very attractive to me."
