Omar Marmoush has reportedly received permission from Manchester City to undergo a medical ahead of finalizing his transfer to Tottenham. According to David Ornstein, the two clubs have reached a definitive agreement on a deal that could be worth up to £60 million. The Egyptian forward will initially join the Spurs on loan, with an obligation for the North London club to purchase him next summer for a fixed fee of £50 million, plus an additional £10 million in performance-related add-ons. Ornstein suggests that five of these add-ons are guaranteed.
Marmoush himself is expected to sign a four-year contract with Tottenham, with an option to extend for a further 12 months. He marks the second Manchester City player to make the switch to the London club. Yesterday, both clubs officially announced the transfer of Savinho, who will now be known as Savio, in a deal valued at £75 million plus £10 million in bonuses.
Last season, Marmoush scored eight goals in 36 appearances across all competitions. City acquired him in January of last year in a deal worth between €70 million and €75 million from his previous club, Eintracht Frankfurt.
Even before this transfer, Tottenham had already spent over £300 million on Savio, Sandro Tonali, Matheus Fernandes, and Jan Paul van Hecke. Andy Robertson, Marcos Senesi, and Martin Dubravka were brought in as free agents.
