Marmoush has scored 20 goals and provided 14 assists in just 26 appearances for the German side so far this season. His arrival increases the firepower in Pep Guardiola’s squad, who have been reliant on Erling Haaland for much of the campaign.
Speaking at his unveiling, Marmoush said he is targeting major trophies after joining a ‘winning culture’ at the Etihad.
“This is a day I will never forget,” Marmoush said.
“To sign for Manchester City – one of the best teams in the world – is an amazing feeling. I am delighted, my family are so proud, and we are all very happy to be here in Manchester.
“With Pep, his technical staff and the world-class facilities here, players have everything they need to improve. That was really enticing for me when I had the chance to come here.
“And I cannot deny I also want to win trophies. City have been the most successful club in England for many, many years, so I know I am joining a winning environment and winning culture. I want to learn from the staff and my teammates, and I want to become a valued member of this winning team.
“I really am looking forward to getting going, meeting the other players and showing the Manchester City fans what I can do.”
