Omar Marmoush (€75M)

Egyptian forward Omar Marmoush has been acquired from Eintracht Frankfurt for €75 million, marking City’s most expensive signing of the window. The 25-year-old has been prolific in the Bundesliga, netting 20 goals and providing 11 assists in 24 appearances this season.

Abdukodir Khusanov (€40M)

City has bolstered their defense by signing 20-year-old Uzbekistani center-back Abdukodir Khusanov from RC Lens for €40 million. Standing at 6ft 1in, Khusanov is expected to integrate directly into the first team, addressing defensive concerns due to injuries among key players. He has agreed to a five-year deal, keeping him at the club until 2030.

Vitor Reis (€37M)

Brazilian teenager Vitor Reis joins from Palmeiras for €37 million. The 18-year-old center-back captained Brazil’s U17 team at the 2023 World Cup and made 22 appearances for Palmeiras last season, scoring twice.

While Reis is considered a prospect for the future, his signing underscores City’s commitment to nurturing young talent. He has signed a six-year contract, extending through 2031.

These strategic signings reflect Manchester City’s ambition to reinforce their squad depth and maintain competitiveness across all competitions. The significant financial outlay demonstrates the club’s determination to address key areas and build for both immediate success and future dominance.
