Liverpool are looking to improve their attacking unit with the signing of Eintracht Frankfurt striker Omar Marmoush.
The 25-year-old Egyptian striker has been in phenomenal form for the Bundesliga side this season, scoring 13 goals in all competitions and picking up nine assists along the way.
Liverpool are preparing an incredible offer to get the deal done if reports from Fichajes are to be believed. The Reds would be willing to present an offer of around £58 million for the player. It will be interesting to see if Frankfurt are willing to accept it. Liverpool have already held initial talks regarding a move.
Marmoush has shown his quality in German football and he has the technical attributes to do well in the Premier League as well. Apart from his ability to score goals, he will help create goalscoring chances for his teammates. Furthermore, he is lethal from direct free-kicks as well.
The striker is entering the peak years of his career and he will look to compete for major trophies. A move to Liverpool could be ideal for him. They could provide him with the platform he needs.
Darwin Nunez has not been able to score goals consistently and Diogo Jota is injury prone. The Reds need another reliable goalscorer in their ranks.
Can Mo Salah help Liverpool sign Omar Marmoush?
It remains to be seen whether Marmoush’s compatriot Mohamed Salah can play a key role in getting the deal done. The 32-year-old could help convince the player to make the move to Merseyside at the end of the season.
A move in January seems unlikely, given his importance to the Frankfurt side. They might not want to lose a key player like him midway through the season.
Meanwhile, the £58 million investment might seem steep right now, but the Egyptian has the potential to justify the outlay in the coming seasons if he can hit the ground running in English football.
