Tottenham is definitely the big player in this 2026 edition of the summer transfer window. After recording the free arrivals of Marcos Sensei, Andrew Robertson and Martin Dúbravka, as well as those of Jean-Paul van Hecke, Mateus Fernandes, Sandro Tonali and Savinho for a total of almost 360 million euros, Spurs announced a loan agreement with a compulsory purchase option at 58 million euros for Omar Marmoush. “ We are delighted to announce the signing of Egyptian international striker Omar Marmoush on loan for a season », indicated the Londoners.
A strong reinforcement for the attack of the team coached by Roberto De Zerbi, while Richarlison and Dominic Solanke do not convince at the forefront of the attack. The inaugural defeat of Spurs during the first day of the Premier League at Brentford (3-0) undoubtedly reinforced the desire of Tottenham leaders to add a new element to this attack.
Nearly half a billion euros spent by Tottenahm
Arriving at Manchester City in January 2025, Omar Marmoush was coming off a successful year and a half at Eintracht Frankfurt. His duo formed with the Frenchman Hugo Ekitiké had terrorized the Bundesliga defenses, before Manchester City came to snatch it for 80 million euros. In the north of England, the Egyptian international (55 caps) had to be content with a role of replacing the indispensable Erling Haaland.
Author of good performances during his first six months in England (eight goals and an assist in 22 matches – 1698 minutes played), the former Wolfsburg player had a much more nuanced 2025/2026 season with 8 goals and three goals in 36 appearances (1393 minutes played). A cruel lack of playing time which motivated the 27-year-old striker to be tempted by a new adventure far from City. With this new recruit, Tottenham will undoubtedly complete its transfer window with nearly half a billion euros in spending. A record in its history.
