The new Bundesliga star that Barça would be monitoring to reinforce its forward line

The FC Barcelona is aware that, despite Robert Lewandowski demonstrating his most voracious side as a scorer, his time as a forward for the Blaugrana team seems to be coming to an end, with a deadline set for June 30, 2026, the moment when 'Lewy''s contract with the club expires and he himself will be approaching 38 years old. This suggests the need to find a replacement capable of matching or surpassing his performance on the field to take over with great assurance.

Initially, two names stand out as exciting targets for Barcelona: Erling Haaland from Manchester City and Viktor Gyökeres from Sporting Club de Portugal. These candidates are very attractive, but would require a considerable financial investment that perhaps Barcelona is not in a position to make. Given this situation, it is not surprising that the Catalan team is considering other options that could offer solid sporting performance without incurring excessive spending.

Omar Marmoush, the 'under-the-radar' option to strengthen Barcelona's attack

At this point, according to reports from 'SPORT', FC Barcelona has added a new name to its list of targets to monitor in order to strengthen its offensive front. According to the aforementioned source, the Blaugrana team is closely following the progress of Omar Marmoush, a potential candidate to be the new star of Egyptian football. This center forward, who currently plays for Eintracht Frankfurt and is 25 years old, has been showing outstanding form with the team of Dino Toppmöller.

Omar Marmoush has accumulated a total of 14 goals and 10 assists so far in the 2024-25 season. He currently shares the lead in the race for the 'Pichichi' of the Bundesliga with Harry Kane (both with 11 goals) and leads the German league in assists with seven. Additionally, in the Europa League, he has scored two goals and provided one assist, and in the DFB Pokal, he has netted one goal and provided one assist, demonstrating his ability as both a scorer and a playmaker.

In addition to this, Omar Marmoush is known for his versatility, as he can play both as a center forward and as a winger on either side. He is also a 'devilish' dribbler, with a very good right-footed shot (a guarantee in free kicks) and has an excellent goal-scoring instinct. He also shows a great creativity to link up with his teammates when the situation requires it, making him an attractive player both for his performance on the field and for the circumstances surrounding his potential arrival at the club.

How much could it cost Barcelona to sign Omar Marmoush?

According to the German newspaper 'BILD', the estimated transfer price for Omar Marmoush is around €45 million, a figure in line with his market value, according to 'Transfermarkt', which places him at around €40 million. Considering this value, his incorporation could prove more affordable for Barcelona, which already has recent experience negotiating with the agency that represents the player, CAA Stellar, the same agency that managed the recent renewal of Fermín López and with which a good relationship is maintained that could give the Catalan club certain favoritism over the interest of other teams in acquiring the Egyptian.
