The German publication BILD claims that Liverpool has a significant edge over Manchester United and Chelsea in the competition to acquire Omar Marmoush, a striker in the Bundesliga who is currently in form, next summer.
After just 14 games across all competitions this season, the 25-year-old has already amassed 12 goals and 9 assists for Eintracht Frankfurt.
Last summer, the Egypt international rejected offers from Nottingham Forest and Fulham to join the Premier League in order to join a much larger team.
With Manchester United, Chelsea, and “above all,” Liverpool joining the chase, BILD now asserts that the situation appears different.
His enormous dream of playing in the Premier League can soon come true thanks to the trio.
However, the Reds have a huge advantage over their English rivals as Marmoush’s dream is to succeed his compatriot Mohamed Salah, whose future is uncertain at the Merseyside giants.
Possible
Marmoush had a good 2023/24 season with 17 goals and 6 assists from 41 outings. He has taken his performances to another level this campaign with 21 goal contributions in only 14 games.
The Egyptian is clearly enjoying the best phase of his career and there are no surprises that he is attracting high-profile interest.
Liverpool are named as one of his main admirers, but the Anfield heavyweights could assess his performances for the remainder of the campaign. If he can stay consistent, an offer could be on the cards.
Arne Slot’s side are unsure over the future of Salah. The right-sided winger has been exceptional once more this season with 16 goal contributions, but he could walk away when his contract expires next summer.
Liverpool need to have a contingency plan in place. Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo would be a fantastic addition to succeed Salah, but the Reds may also want to bolster the centre-forward department too.
Diogo Jota has been prone to picking up injuries while we are yet to see the best of Darwin Nunez and Cody Gakpo up front in the Premier League. Marmoush could emerge as a possible solution.
Liverpool have officially registered an interest with the player’s advisors and he could be signed for £50 million
