Overview
- TEAMtalk reporting indicates Aston Villa are exploring a move for Marmoush, with Tottenham Hotspur having made enquiries.
- Manchester City are described as reluctant to approve a mid-season departure, particularly to a domestic rival.
- Marmoush joined City from Eintracht Frankfurt for £59 million in January 2025 on a contract to 2029 and has had few league and Champions League starts this season.
- The 26-year-old is currently with Egypt at the Africa Cup of Nations, which complicates any immediate transfer talks.
- Former scout Mick Brown told Football Insider he believes Marmoush is unlikely to leave in January and is doubtful about a move to Tottenham.
