A success in any language

That’s probably the most succinct way of summing up Omar Marmoush’s superb impact to date across a career that began in his native Africa, but which has truly taken flight here in Europe.

It speaks volumes for his strength of character and mindset that Marmoush was so quickly able to adapt to life in a new continent after making the switch from his native Egypt to Germany in 2020.

After initially honing his craft with Wolfsburg’s reserve outfit, Marmoush graduated through to the first team ranks, making his senior debut in May 2020 before signing his maiden professional contract later that summer.

To help further aid his development Marmoush then sent time on loan with FC St Pauli, where he netted seven times from 21 appearances in Bundesliga 2 across the second half of the 2020/21 campaign.

That was followed by another valuable loan spell with Bundesliga side VfB Stuttgart the following season before Marmoush then cemented his place in the Wolfsburg first team at the outset of the 2022/23 season.

However, his career in Germany really took flight the following term after summer move to Eintracht Frankfurt.

Marmoush weighed in with a superb return of 17 goals across 41 appearances during the 2023/24 season, his efforts proving instrumental in helping Eintracht finish sixth in the Bundesliga and so qualify for the Europa League.
