Tottenham Hotspur have agreed a deal in principle with Manchester City to sign forward Omar Marmoush, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
Romano confirmed on X that Spurs have reached a verbal agreement with the Citizens to sign Marmoush on loan, with a conditional obligation to make the transfer permanent for a fee of around £50m.
The 27-year-old has already agreed personal terms with the North London club and is set to undergo a medical today before the deal is formally completed.
Tottenham have made significant moves late in this transfer window, with the Marmoush deal following their recently agreed signing of Savinho from Manchester City.
Having endured a difficult campaign last season, the Lilywhites have made revamping their squad a clear priority under head coach Roberto De Zerbi this summer.
The club bolstered their defence and midfield early in the window and have now turned their attention to strengthening the frontline in the closing stages of the transfer period.
Marmoush rose to prominence with his impressive performances for German club Eintracht Frankfurt before making the move to the Etihad Stadium.
The Egyptian international, however, struggled to establish himself consistently at Manchester City under Pep Guardiola during his time with the Premier League champions.
At 27, Marmoush is considered to be in the prime stage of his career, and the move to Spurs represents a significant opportunity to revive his fortunes in England.
Tottenham will be eager to integrate their new signings quickly, with a busy schedule ahead as they prepare to face Charlton Athletic in midweek.
The North London side then turn their attention to a Premier League fixture against Newcastle United next weekend, looking to improve after a 3-0 defeat to Brentford.
With Marmoush potentially available for selection soon, De Zerbi will be hoping the forward can make an immediate impact as Spurs look to put last season firmly behind them.
