'Here we go!' - Fabrizio Romano confirms Man City agreement for third January transfer

Manchester City have reportedly agreed a deal to sign Omar Marmoush from Eintracht Frankfurt in the January transfer window.

City had a bid rejected for the 25-year-old earlier in the week but are now believed to have reached an agreement that will see him move to Manchester in the coming days. Marmoush is currently the second-highest goalscorer in the Bundesliga behind Bayern Munich ace Harry Kane and has been identified by City as a top target to rejuvenate their underperforming attack.

Frankfurt signed the Egypt international on a free transfer just 18 months ago and are set to make a huge profit, with Marmoush valued at roughly £67 million, though there is no mention of the fee City will pay just yet.

Taking to social media on Thursday night, transfer guru Fabrizio Romano issued an update on the deal and uttered his immortal 'here we go' phrase to indicate the transfer was all but official.

"Omar Marmoush to Manchester City, here we go! Deal in place with Eintracht Frankfurt after final round of talks," he wrote. "Five year deal agreed with Egyptian forward who wanted to join Man City. Vitor Reis, Khusanov… and now Marmoush."

It is understood City have already committed to spend over £60 million on centre-back duo Vitor Reis and Abdukodir Khusanov as they look to get their season back on track this month.
