Egypt international forward Omar Marmoush has joined Tottenham Hotspur on a season-long loan.
Marmoush linked up with Spurs from Manchester City, and the deal includes an obligation to make the move permanent next summer.
The 27-year-old is determined to make a positive impact at his new club.
“It feels amazing to be here. I’m so excited to get started with the team and I can’t wait to meet the fans,” Marmoush told the club’s official website.
“Tottenham Hotspur is one of the biggest clubs in England, if not the world, and the project was very attractive to me.
“I’ve spoken with the Head Coach, I loved what he had to say and I’m sure our passion for the game will go very well together.”
Sporting Director, Johan Lange, said: “Omar is a quality player and his arrival represents a statement of our intent.
“He has demonstrated that he can perform at the highest level, and we believe he can play a major role in what we want to achieve over the coming years.
“We are delighted to welcome Omar to the club and look forward to seeing him make a significant contribution as we continue to build a strong squad to realise our ambitions.”
