'Can be a star like Mohamed Salah' - Egypt boss talks up Man City's Omar Marmoush amid Barcelona interest
"Omar Marmoush has surfaced as a target for FC Barcelona according to Diario SPORT. His breakout at Eintracht Frankfurt was loud, fueled by a season of 20 goals and 16 assists that convinced Manchester City to drop 75 million euros for him in January of last year."
"Pep Guardiola has primarily used him as a substitute for Erling Haaland rather than a starting partner for him. There are some whispers that he could be frustrated with a lack of minutes, and that is exactly why a move to La Liga doesn't feel totally implausible."
"Egypt's coach Hossam Hassan isn't shy about hyping his new star up, stating that 'everything is in front of him to be a star like Mohamed Salah,' and pointed out that 'Omar could play in the Spanish league one day and he deserves it.'"
"City can keep him if they want to, but the Manchester club has shown in the past that they will let players go if they push for a move due to lack of minutes, as was the case with Julián Alvarez."
Omar Marmoush, a 26-year-old player for Manchester City, is being eyed by FC Barcelona. He previously excelled in the Bundesliga, scoring 20 goals and providing 16 assists at Eintracht Frankfurt. Despite a successful stint at City, he has primarily been a substitute, leading to speculation about his future. Egypt's coach believes Marmoush has the potential to become a star like Mohamed Salah. Comparisons are growing after his impressive performance against Saudi Arabia, but Barcelona has yet to make a move amid financial considerations.
