Tottenham secure Omar Marmoush on loan with £60m obligation to buy
Spurs have confirmed the arrival of Manchester City forward Omar Marmoush on an initial loan deal, featuring a £60m obligation to buy that follows the recent £85m signing of Savio.
Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed the signing of Manchester City forward Omar Marmoush on an initial loan agreement. The move represents a significant addition to the squad managed by Roberto De Zerbi, continuing a pattern of recruitment from the City side.
According to Sky Sports News, the deal includes a £60m obligation to buy. This financial commitment is structured as a £50m guaranteed payment, complemented by £10m in add-ons. The specific triggers for these additional payments were not detailed in the initial confirmation, though the obligation ensures a pathway to a permanent transfer.
The signing follows the arrival of former City teammate Savio, who completed an £85m move to Spurs on Tuesday. This sequence of transfers highlights a targeted approach to strengthening the attacking options within De Zerbi’s squad.
Eintracht Frankfurt, who originally sold Marmoush to Manchester City in January 2025, have been confirmed as not holding a sell-on clause in the new agreement. This detail corrects earlier media reports suggesting otherwise.
Frankfurt received their desired guaranteed fee at the time of the initial sale, along with additional bonuses. The payment terms included very few instalments, meaning Manchester City has fulfilled all its financial obligations to the German club.
The deal is described as an initial loan, indicating that the permanent transfer is contingent on the obligation being met rather than being an immediate permanent move. This structure provides Tottenham with a period of assessment before the full fee is triggered.
