Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing the Eintracht Frankfurt striker Omar Marmoush.
The 24-year-old Egyptian striker has had an impressive campaign with the German club and he contributed towards 17 goals and six assists in all competitions last season. He could prove to be a quality acquisition for the North London club and it will be interesting to see if Tottenham decide to make a move for him.
According to a report from BILD via Sport Witness, Tottenham might have to shell out €50 million in order to get the deal done. The German outfit are holding out for a premium for their prized asset.
Marmoush has proven himself to be a quality attacker in the Bundesliga, and he has the physical and technical attributes to succeed in the Premier League as well. Tottenham are missing a reliable goalscorer since the departure of Harry Kane and it will be interesting to see if they can fill the void left by the England international this summer.
Marmoush will certainly be tempted to join a club like Tottenham and move to the Premier League will be an exciting opportunity for him. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
Tottenham will be hoping to secure Champions League qualification next season and they will look to do well in the domestic competitions as well. They need to add more quality and depth to their attack this summer and signing a quality goalscorer should prove to be a wise decision.
The reported asking price seems quite steep for the Egyptian attacker, and it will be interesting to see if Tottenham are willing to break the bank for him.
