In a decision that has left fans and pundits alike surprised, Dino Toppmöller, the head coach of Eintracht Frankfurt, included Omar Marmoush in the starting lineup for their crucial Bundesliga clash against Freiburg. This move comes as speculation intensifies around Marmoush’s anticipated transfer to Manchester City, with reports suggesting the deal is almost finalized.

This decision adds an extra layer of intrigue to the Bundesliga encounter, as Eintracht Frankfurt faces a strong Freiburg side. Fans are eagerly waiting to see if Marmoush can deliver a stellar performance amidst the backdrop of his transfer drama, potentially marking the end of his tenure in Germany on a high note.
