Eintracht Frankfurt will fill the vacancy of Omar Marmusi, who will leave for Manchester City.
Fabrizio Romano, a reporter who is well aware of the situation in the European soccer transfer market, said on the 21st (Korea time), "Frank Frankfurt is close to reaching an agreement on the transfer of Olain Fik Marcéu to Ellye Wahi. Finally, we are coordinating the details between the clubs."
Frankfurt aims to advance to the UCL this season. It enjoyed remarkable strides in the first half of the season to enter the top four teams, which are qualified for the UCL, and won all of the first three matches in the second half of the league, successfully widening the gap with fifth-ranked RB Leipzig (31 points) with 36 points.
However, it is questionable whether it will be able to maintain its upward trend. This is because Marmusi, who was the ace this season, will leave for Manchester City. Marmusi played a leading role in Frankfurt's sensation by ranking second in scoring, first in assists, and first in attack points with 15 goals and nine assists in 17 games in the league alone. He is considered to be the closest to the "second Mohamed Salah" in many aspects, including fast feet, destructive dribbling, improved decision-making and Egyptian nationality. The German soccer magazine Kicker classified Marmusi as the "Weltklasse" in the first half of the league and placed him on the same line with Harry Kane, Florian Birz and Jamal Musiala. Manchester City, which needed two offensive resources, made all-out efforts to bring in Marmusi this winter and effectively succeeded in recruiting him for 80 million euros (about 120 billion won).
Frankfurt was also quickly looking for a replacement, and Wahi, who failed to secure a place in Marseille, was on the radar. Wahi made his first-team debut with French Ligue 1 Montpellier and scored 10 league goals in the 2021-2022 season and 19 league goals in the 2022-2023 season, drawing public attention. At the time, Frankfurt also paid attention to Wahi, who wanted to continue his career on the familiar French stage. As a result, this choice was not good. Wahi was somewhat disappointed with nine league goals last season, and he has not been able to perform much even after moving to Marseille this season.
Frankfurt intends to fill the vacancy of Marmusi by recruiting Wahi, 먹튀검증 whose ransom has fallen. Frankfurt has recently been renowned as a club that fosters outstanding strikers. Sebastian Alle, Luca Jovic, André Silva, and Randal Kolo Muani are their works. After leaving Frankfurt, their power declined, but they showed excellent attack power at least within the club. Wahi may also display his potential in Frankfurt, where he could not have been full at other clubs.
