Eintracht Frankfurt attacker Omar Marmoush is having the season of his life in the Bundesliga and that has created interest from Arsenal and Liverpool.
The Egyptian has scored 13 goals and provided 7 assists in the Bundesliga this season.
Due to the brilliant form of the 25-year-old attacker, his team are currently third in the Bundesliga, only behind Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen.
According to GiveMeSport, Mikel Arteta’s side have the chance to take the lead against Liverpool in the race to sign Marmoush as the Reds are currently more focused on sorting out the contract situation of their star attacker Mohamed Salah.
As per the report, the German club will demand £50million for their star attacker but they have no intention of letting Marmoush leave them in the middle of the season.
Any move for the Bundesliga star would have to wait till the summer transfer.
Liverpool have been linked with a move for Marmoush for a very long time and potentially as a replacement of Salah but the 32-year-old is showing no signs of stopping any time soon and the Reds want to make sure they keep him at the club.
Salah is currently having the best season of his career, having already scored 17 Premier League goals this season along with 13 assists.
In just 18 Premier League matches, the Liverpool star, who has a demand to sign a new contract at Anfield, is involved in 30 goals and his fine form has made the Reds the favourites to win the Premier League title this season.
As far as Marmoush is concerned, even though the Bundesliga side have no intention of letting the player leave the club any time soon, an offer from a big Premier League side like Arsenal or Liverpool could turn the player’s head and he could demand a move away from the German club.
Marmoush has has two-and-a-half years remaining on his current contract but a move to one of the Premier League giants would not only offer him the chance to challenge for silverware but also significantly increase his wages.
Since Liverpool have other priorities at the moment, Arsenal have the opportunity to bring Marmoush to the Emirates Stadium and make him a part of their already talented attack.
