Omar Marmoush’s journey to Manchester City is fueled by Kompany’s support and Salah’s dreams, amid a £67m transfer saga
Manchester: If Pep Guardiola and Manchester City were unsure about spending £67 million on Omar Marmoush, they just needed to call Vincent Kompany. The former City captain saw Marmoush shine when his Bayern Munich team faced Eintracht Frankfurt, where Marmoush scored a last-minute equalizer and assisted a goal.
Since then, Marmoush has been on fire, scoring 20 goals and providing 14 assists this season. His impressive performance has made Eintracht Frankfurt hold out for the full £67 million, especially since they signed him for free from Wolfsburg.
Initially, Marmoush struggled at Wolfsburg, but he found his groove at Eintracht. He’s now a solid number nine, showing he can score and create chances. However, joining City means competing with Erling Haaland, who’s been unstoppable this season.
But could they play together? Johannes, a Frankfurt reporter, thinks so. Marmoush has gained confidence playing alongside other skilled strikers, and he’s shown he can adapt. He’s a late bloomer, much like Salah, who also faced challenges early in his career.
Salah has praised Marmoush’s talent but urged people not to compare them too much. Marmoush is just starting his journey and needs to carve out his own path. After turning down offers from Fulham and Nottingham Forest, he’s ready to make a mark at City.
Kompany believes Marmoush will only improve with time, highlighting his speed and skill. It seems like this young player is on the brink of something big.
