There’s a new Pharoah in town and Liverpool could be the club to secure his signature, if they so wish.
Frankfurt’s Omar Marmoush has been heavily linked with a move to the Premier League, though it’s understood that he won’t be for sale until the next summer transfer window.
Christian Falk now notes that West Ham would be a ‘perfect club’ for the Egyptian international. However, the Liverpool-linked attacker is understood to be dreaming of a move to a top outfit like the Reds and Arsenal.
“West Ham are in need of a young striker and, in the end, their ability to sign Omar Marmoush will come down to a question of money. Frankfurt are not prepared to sell the player in January, however, and have set a €40-50m price tag for the next summer window,” the BILD reporter told CaughtOffside.
“Smaller clubs like Nottingham Forest (who unsuccessfully bid €30m this summer) and Fulham, who did hold interest in the player in the prior window, were ultimately not considered viable options for Marmoush to leave Frankfurt behind. That said, West Ham would have a chance next summer. Though, it shouldn’t go unsaid that Marmoush still dreams of playing for top Premier League clubs like Liverpool or Arsenal.
“I don’t think, at the moment, he’s a striker made for the big six in England, but West Ham would be a perfect club for him. Meanwhile, he’s performing very well in Germany and tops the Bundesliga scoring chart ahead of Harry Kane.”
The Bundesliga forward has enjoyed a tremendous 2024/25 campaign so far, registering 12 goal contributions in eight games (across all competitions). His tally of six German top-flight goals sees him top the scorers chart ahead of Harry Kane (5).
