Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are both showing a keen interest in snapping up Wolfsburg winger Omar Marmoush this summer.
That’s according to a report from German newspaper Bild, who claim that Marmoush would love to play in the Premier League.
Marmoush is currently on loan at Wolfsburg’s Bundesliga rivals Stuttgart but will be heading back to his parent club this summer.
Marmoush only has one year left on his contract and Wolfsburg would like to give him a new deal.
However, Marmoush actually signing a new deal is considered unlikely right now and a move to England could materialise.
It’s claimed that the 23-year-old fancies playing in the Premier League and loves to watch Liverpool.
That’s no great surprise considering that Marmoush has admitted his friendship with Egypt international teammate and Liverpool hero Mohamed Salah.
The report notes that both Arsenal and Tottenham both have Marmoush on their summer shopping lists.
Marmoush, described as a ‘dribble artist’ by Bild and ‘fantastic’ by Stuttgart sporting director Sven Mislintat, has shown talent in Germany.
In 20 Bundesliga displays this season, Marmoush has bagged three goals and four assists.
Marmoush has been playing in a struggling Stuttgart side though and both Arsenal and Tottenham may feel he can develop around better players.
The former Wadi Degla talent can play up front or on either flank, providing a versatile attacking threat for the future.
Marmoush isn’t big name by any stretch of the imagination, but he could be a cheap attacking addition.
Arsenal are likely to sign a big-name striker this summer but will need competition. Similarly, Tottenham need cover for Harry Kane in attack.
Marmoush may fit the bill as a versatile forward who can offer a cheap option for either North London club as he chases the dream of playing in the Premier League just like Salah.
