Omar Marmoush’s move to Tottenham has been officially confirmed. On August 27, 2026, Tottenham announced that it had signed the Egypt international forward on a season-long loan from Manchester City, with an obligation to make the transfer permanent next summer included in the deal.

The Obligation to Buy After the Loan Is Key

This is not an immediate permanent transfer but initially a season-long loan. However, Tottenham’s official announcement states that the agreement includes an obligation to complete a permanent transfer next summer, making the structure different from a straightforward loan.

The key point is that the “season-long loan” and the “obligation to buy next summer” are part of the same deal.

Manchester City also officially announced that Marmoush had joined Tottenham on a season-long loan. City said that Marmoush had made 62 appearances and scored 16 goals for the club up to that point.

The £60m Report Should Be Distinguished from the Official Announcements

Regarding the transfer fee, Sky Sports reported the total package as £60m. The report said this consisted of £50m guaranteed plus £10m in bonuses.

However, Tottenham and Manchester City did not disclose a specific transfer fee in their official announcements. Therefore, the £60m figure and its breakdown should be understood as details reported by Sky Sports, not figures officially confirmed by the clubs.

What Has Been Confirmed So Far

  • Marmoush has joined Tottenham from Manchester City on a season-long loan.
  • The deal includes an obligation to make the transfer permanent next summer.
  • According to Manchester City’s announcement, his record for the club was 62 appearances and 16 goals.
  • The £60m total, £50m guaranteed fee, and £10m in bonuses were reported by Sky Sports.

Premier League official content also introduced Marmoush as a player who moved from Manchester City to Tottenham and covered Tottenham’s early home fixtures for the 2026/27 season. The key to understanding this transfer is to distinguish between the deal structure confirmed in the official announcements and the fee details reported separately.
