Before the top Bundesliga game between Frankfurt and Dortmund, Omar Marmoush’s possible move to Manchester City is causing a stir. The Frankfurt team could already be missing the top striker.
The Bundesliga cracker game on Friday (8:30 p.m., live Sky & Sport24 live ticker) between Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Dortmund is marked by a possible transfer hammer: Frankfurt’s top striker Omar Marmoush is about to move, according to British media reports Manchester City. The clubs are said to have already reached an agreement, only details still need to be clarified.
Marmoush: Change almost quick
Eintracht is expected to collect a transfer fee of around 70 million euros, which could rise to up to 80 million euros with bonus payments. Marmoush will probably no longer play against Borussia Dortmund. The Egyptian’s last game for Eintracht was the 4-1 win against Freiburg, in which he showed his class again.
With 15 goals and 10 assists in 17 Bundesliga games, Marmoush was the linchpin of Frankfurt’s attack. His loss is a big blow for coach Dino Topmüller.
-Dortmund: Bad start to the year
Borussia Dortmund starts the duel against Frankfurt after a weak start to the year with two defeats. After a 2:3 against Leverkusen and a 2:4 embarrassment against Holstein Kiel, coach Nuri Sahin’s team is under pressure. However, the possible loss of Marmoush gives BVB hope of ending the negative series.
