Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly exploring a move for Egypt international Omar Marmoush as they continue reshaping their attacking options.
Marmoush is currently with Manchester City, but Tottenham are looking at the possibility of bringing the forward to North London.
Why Spurs want Marmoush
Marmoush offers versatility across the forward line and possesses the pace needed to attack space behind defensive lines.
His ability to play centrally or from wide areas would provide Tottenham with additional tactical flexibility.
Huge summer spending
Tottenham have already invested heavily in their squad this summer.
A move for Marmoush would represent another major statement of intent as Roberto De Zerbi attempts to build a competitive squad.
Manchester City decision
City would need to determine whether Marmoush remains part of their plans or whether an opportunity to move him on makes financial and sporting sense.
Final verdict
Marmoush is a player worth watching closely as the deadline approaches.
