Tottenham secures the signing of Omar Marmoush for £50M
Tottenham reaches an agreement with Manchester City for Omar Marmoush, who will arrive on loan with a purchase option of 50 million pounds.
Tottenham has reached a verbal agreement with Manchester City to incorporate Omar Marmoush, a 27-year-old Egyptian forward. The operation will be carried out through a loan with a purchase option that will become mandatory if certain conditions are met, for an amount of 50 million pounds.
Marmoush had already given the green light to the club change days ago and is scheduled to travel on Monday to complete the medical examinations. Unless there is a last-minute twist, the operation is now entering its final phase before the signing of the contracts, as reported by Fabrizio Romano.
Tottenham reaches agreement for Omar Marmoush
Negotiations between Tottenham and Manchester City have progressed in recent days leading to a preliminary agreement. The key point has been the formula: Marmoush will initially arrive on loan, avoiding a permanent transfer from the outset.
The purchase option will be set at 50 million pounds and will become mandatory if the agreed conditions between the two clubs are met. Therefore, the final cost will depend on the fulfillment of those requirements during his time in London.
The player's decision has also facilitated progress. Omar Marmoush accepted Tottenham's proposal before the clubs finalized the economic structure of the operation.
Marmoush arrived at Manchester City in January 2025 from Eintracht Frankfurt. In the Premier League, he has played 37 matches with 10 goals and three assists, although during the 2025/26 season, his participation was reduced to 696 minutes in the league.
Manchester City opens the door to another departure
Manchester City faces the final days of the transfer market with several significant movements in its squad. Marmoush's exit comes after weeks in which Tottenham had already negotiated with the Manchester club for other players.
The London team has also secured the signing of Savinho, another player from City. The deal for the Brazilian is around 75 million pounds plus variables, significantly increasing the business volume between both clubs this summer.
In Marmoush's case, the scenario is different as it begins with a loan. However, the conditional obligation of 50 million pounds opens the possibility for it to eventually become a permanent transfer.
The attacker still had a long-term contract with City, signed until 2029 when he arrived from Germany. This contractual situation allowed the English club to maintain a strong position in negotiating his departure.
Medical examination scheduled for Monday
The next step of the operation is set. Marmoush will travel on Monday to undergo medical tests before signing his new contract with Tottenham.
Once the examinations are completed, the clubs can finalize the documentation for the loan and announce the move. The verbal agreement between the parties and the player's consent leave the final procedures as the main pending issue.
Tottenham is, therefore, on the verge of adding Omar Marmoush after agreeing on the conditions with Manchester City. If the medical examination proceeds as planned, Monday could be the definitive day to complete an operation that could reach 50 million pounds.
