A parking howler star Omar Marmoush has reportedly resulted in the Manchester City star's £200,000 car being clamped. The 27-year-old was caught out by the council, which left the Egyptian ace with a lock on his wheel and a ticket on his windshield.

The winger, who signed for City in January 2025 for £59m, had parked his 2025 Mercedes-Benz AMG G 63 MHEV down a back street in the city centre while he got a haircut, according to reports.

A swish £200,000 motor was spotted with the clamp on South King Street, Manchester.

The vehicle was spotted in a ‘loading only’ bay on Aug 14 around 8.30 pm. Manchester City Council’s removal fee for a clamp can reach up to £105 if the owner fails to contact them within 24 hours.

The car will then be towed to the pound where the owner will be charged £12 a day until the vehicle is collected. The standard removal fee starts at £40.

The clamp could serve as a sour end to Marmoush’s time in Manchester with the star having now completed a loan move to Tottenham Hotspur. The winger came on against Arsenal in the second half of his side's 3-0 loss to the Premier League Champions in the Community Shield.

Despite being subbed on in the 51st minute at 3-0, the Egyptian had little impact on the match, which took place on 16 Aug - days after his vehicle was clamped.

This is not the first time the forward has been caught out for his parking in Manchester. He’s previously been caught three times on camera for parking irresponsibly.

Man City have agreed to loan the 27-year-old to Spurs for the season, but the move will be made permanent next summer with a fee of £60m agreed between the two sides.

Marmoush moved to the Etihad from Frankfurt in January 2025, playing 62 times for City and scoring 16 goals.

In a statement on their website, City confirmed the exit of the Egypt international, ending with the sentence: "Everyone at City would like to wish Omar good luck with his loan switch to Spurs."

Marmoush becomes the latest player to leave the Etihad in what has been a summer of change under new head coach Enzo Maresca.
