Manchester City forward Omar Marmoush has been linked with Fenerbahçe in recent days as their search for a forward continues.
Fener are keen to bring in an attacker before the transfer deadline, partly due to Youssef En-Nesyri leaving. The Morocco international has signed for Juventus on a loan deal, rejecting moves to Everton and Nottingham Forest.
Subsequently, they’ve now turned their attention to the Manchester City attacker. The Yellow Canaries are also in transfer talks to sign Everton’s Beto.
Sabah have reported on the latest developments regarding Fenerbahçe’s pursuit for Marmoush and they say Pep Guardiola has sanctioned the transfer.
His Manchester City future has been thrown into further doubt with the recent arrival of Antoine Semenyo. The Ghana international has hit the ground running since signing from Bournemouth, scoring three goals in four games.
Manchester City transfer talks ongoing
The Super Lig are prepared to offer a €30m transfer fee for the Egypt intentional and negotiations are ongoing. Bayern Munich are in the mix to sign the forward.
However, there have been reports in the past week the 26-year-old would prefer to remain in the Premier League, and only leave on a loan deal. Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly been showing interest this month.
Süleyman Rodop has revealed Galatasaray are also monitoring the situation with the Manchester City man.
The journalist said Marmoush’s agent has been approached via Gala intermediaries after a possible move to Rams Park. Again, Fenerbahçe’s interest is mentioned.
“Omar Marmoush’s agent met with Gardi. Omar’s agent informed that we can come to Galatasaray’. Fenerbahçe also tried to be involved in this transfer,” said the Turkish journalist.
Marmoush has made just three league starts in a season hampered by injury and interrupted by AFCON. The former Frankfurt player was involved in the defeat to FK Bodø/Glimt, but did impress against Wolves yesterday.
He’s contracted to Manchester City until June 2029.
