Manchester City is seeking to recruit Omar Marmusch.
The British Telegraph reported on the 7th (Korea time) "Man City is seeking to recruit Marmusch, a versatile striker and Einracht Frankfurt, to the January transfer window. Manchester City, who have had a miserable performance over the past two months, will need a £50m transfer fee to keep up with league leaders Liverpool with Marmusch on board," he reported.
Man City's defense is not the only problem this season. The attack is also serious. The focus was on Elling Holan, who had been on the ups and downs for a while, but the reality was the sluggishness of second-line resources. Phil Foden, who was the English Premier League Player of the Year last season, has only scored two league goals.
The same goes for other second-line resources. Bernardu Silva, Jeremy Doku and Kevin De Bruyne also have only two goals. Savinho scored one goal and Jack Grealish still hasn't scored yet. Currently, Manchester City's second-leading scorer in the league is center back Yosuko Gvardiol.
As a result, Manchester City wants to strengthen its second line, especially the left winger position. The target was Marmusch, who became the best player in the German Bundesliga this season. Marmusch, born in 1999, has stood out in Frankfurt since last season and exploded this season.
He is competing for Bundesliga MVP with Harry Kane by scoring 13 goals and 8 assists in 15 league games. Currently, not many strikers in Europe are as destructive as Marmusch. Considering that it is a performance in Frankfurt, not a big club, a higher evaluation is inevitable.
Marmusch can be used in various positions such as left winger, striker, and second striker. The speed is very fast and the goal-determining power has increased. Recently, he is also showing off his ability as a set piece kicker. He is a player who can reduce Holan's scoring burden.
The Telegraph reports "Man City thinks he can play successfully in the EPL thanks to Marmusch's speed and ability to play in various attacking positions. The club is trying to strengthen several positions that have been exacerbated by injuries to key players. Marmusch is a player who can play across various positions of the offense."
Manchester City is not the only club aiming for Marmusch. Liverpool and Arsenal are also believed to be interested, but Manchester City is known to be the most active team. Frankfurt want to hold on to Marmusch, but they say they can let him go if a good offer comes up.
The British Daily Mail also covered the rumor of Manchester City's transfer to Marmusch. Media reports "An informal meeting is being held and we expect an agreement to be reached in the coming days at the earliest.
