According to Sky Germany reporter Patrick Berger, the 25-year-old wants to move to City and there is a 'complete' verbal agreement between him and the Premier League side. The report adds, however, that the Bundesliga team want €80 million (£67m/$82m) for his services in January.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
City are having their worst season in many years and even with the prolific Erling Haaland up front, Pep Guardiola's team looks a shell of their former selves. Allowing Julian Alvarez to join Atletico Madrid may have been a mistake but reported Arsenal and Liverpool target Marmoush could be a good replacement. The report adds City are planning to lodge a bid this weekend but Eintracht would demand a lot less this summer.
DID YOU KNOW?
The Egypt international, whose contract at Eintracht runs until 2027, has scored 18 goals and bagged 12 assists in 24 games in all competitions this season.

WHAT NEXT?
All eyes will be on whether or not City make an offer for Marmoush and if Eintracht will be willing to negotiate to get a deal done. A transfer, however, may be more likely in the summer.
