The 25-year-old forward has often displayed his clinical finishing prowess, but is also becoming a serious threat from dead-ball situations.

Manchester City are another heavyweight outfit to have been linked with Marmoush, but any of his suitors in the Premier League will need to dig deep in order to get a deal done. It is being suggested that Eintracht will demand between £50-60 million ($64-77m) from any sale.
