Omar Marmoosh, the Egyptian national team striker and Manchester City player, aims to lead his team back to winning ways when they face Brighton at 4 PM today, Sunday, in the third round of the English Premier League.

Manchester City enters the match with 3 points after opening their campaign with a big 4-0 win over Wolverhampton, before falling 2-0 to Tottenham in the second round. Meanwhile, Brighton has 1 point after drawing 1-1 with Fulham and then losing 2-0 to Everton.

Marmoosh is looking to end his goal drought in the Premier League, having not scored since May 20, when he netted in Manchester City’s 3-1 win over Bournemouth in the 37th round of last season. The Egyptian player hopes to use the Brighton match to regain his scoring touch and prove himself again with the league champions.

Marmoosh’s name has been mentioned by Tottenham, who are looking for attacking alternatives after failing to sign Savinho from Manchester City. The site “City Extra” revealed that Spurs management inquired about the possibility of signing one of City’s trio: Omar Marmoosh, Nathan Ake, or Jeremy Doku before the summer transfer window closes.

Reports indicate that Manchester City does not want to weaken its squad before the transfer window closes, as it aims to achieve the Premier League and Champions League double. It is unlikely the club will approve Marmoosh’s departure at this time, despite Tottenham’s serious interest.

Marmoosh joined Manchester City in last winter’s transfer window from Eintracht Frankfurt for 75 million euros, becoming the most expensive African player in Premier League history to date.
