Omar Marmoush has completed his move to Manchester City from Eintracht Frankfurt.

Sky Sports News understands City have paid an initial fee of ยฃ59m (โ‚ฌ70m) plus a further ยฃ4.2m (โ‚ฌ5m) in bonuses.

Marmoush arrives after only 18 months with Frankfurt, who he joined from Wolfsburg in July 2023 on a free transfer.

“I’m so happy to be here,” he said. “Manchester City is one of the biggest clubs in the world over the past 10 years, so it was not a question.

“It is an honour the club showed an interest in me and now I’m here. The last two seasons have been great, but it is just the beginning for me.”

Marmoush can operate across the front three and has been involved in more goals than any other player in the Bundesliga this season, including Harry Kane.

“I’ve played many positions. For the national team I am playing left wing most of the time. At my former club, I was playing No 9, sometimes at 10 and also an eight,” added Marmoush.

“I’ve also played on the right wing, so I think I can play in all the positions, but I feel most comfortable behind the striker in the No 10 position where the way to the goal is quicker – or shorter I should say – so I am comfortable in all positions. But wherever I play, I will always give my all to try and help the team.

“My main strength I would say is that I always want to win – that is from a character point of view.

“On the pitch, I am fast, good on the ball, I try to see where the spaces are and exploit the spaces – and I’m dangerous.” (SkySports)
