Omar Marmoush, a 25-year-old Egyptian winger, currently plies his trade for Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga. Despite not being a household name among fans, Marmoush has had an impressive breakthrough season in Germany.
With 15 goals and seven assists in all competitions, including ten goals in the Bundesliga, where Frankfurt is currently in 6th place and in the running for a Europa Conference League spot, Marmoush has certainly made a mark.
Having earned 29 caps for the Egyptian National Team, scoring five goals in the process, Marmoush is a player familiar to Salah. As Salah’s contract at Liverpool has just one more full season remaining, the need to secure a long-term replacement has become a priority for the club’s hierarchy. Michael Edwards’ return has only added to the uncertainty surrounding Salah’s future.
Traditionally, Edwards has been cautious about offering new contracts to players over the age of 30. While Salah’s agent is confident that he will see out his current deal, the future remains uncertain for the iconic forward.
