Man City confirm Omar Marmoush £65m move hours after PSG defeat as star speaks out

Manchester City have completed the deal for Omar Marmoush from Eintracht Frankfurt in a huge £65million deal.

The Egyptian striker has committed to a contract that will see him stay at the Etihad until 2029, taking City's spending to almost £150 million last week.

It comes as a welcome relief for Pep Guardiola following his side's crushing 4-2 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League earlier this week.

Marmoush, 25, has an impressive record of 20 goals in 26 appearances in all competitions this season.

Speaking after putting pen to paper with City, he said: “It's a day I'll never forget. Signing for Manchester City – one of the best teams in the world – is an incredible feeling.

“I'm delighted, my family is very proud and we are all very happy to be here in Manchester. With Pep, his coaching staff and the world-class facilities here, the players have everything they need to become better. “

“It was really tempting for me when I had the chance to come here. And I can't deny that I also want to win trophies. City have been the most successful club in England for many, many years, so I know that I am joining a winning club with a winning environment and culture.

“I want to learn from the staff and my teammates, and I want to become a valued member of this winning team. I'm really looking forward to getting started, meeting the other players and showing the Manchester City fans what I can do. “

City have already strengthened their defensive ranks with the signings of Vitor Reis and Abdukodir Khusanov, and a midfield addition is not out of the question given the impact of Rodri's injury throughout the season.
