Tottenham are interested in Omar Marmoush and could offer multiple players as part of a swap deal with Manchester City
Tottenham have three key players who could feature in a swap deal with Manchester City for Omar Marmoush.
Spurs have been listed among several clubs interested in the Egyptian. Marmoush has struggled for regular minutes at City and could see his starting XI opportunities diminish further following the arrival of Antoine Semenyo from Bournemouth.
As a result, clubs like Aston Villa, Fenerbahce and the Lilywhites have all been linked with a move in recent weeks. Turkish publication Sabah reports that the player would prefer to remain in the Premier League, giving Villa and Spurs a leg up on a potential transfer.
Tammy Abraham's arrival in Birmingham boosts Thomas Frank's chances further of securing Marmoush. The club could even consider offering a fee plus some of their own stars in order to secure a deal before the transfer deadline on Monday.
Here, Football London has named three Spurs stars who could make the journey to Manchester.

Micky van de Ven
Micky van de Ven has attracted interest from across the Premier League in recent times. Liverpool have been linked with a move for the defender in the past, as boss Frank admits a new contract had been a priority for Spurs.
However, while the Dutch international is regarded as a "very important" player, the club could consider sending him north to bolster their thin forward line.
Currently, Dominic Solanke is the team's only fit striker who can be relied upon, following Richarlison's injury. Frank may prioritise gaining more firepower up front than tying down defensive stars.
Van de Ven is a doubt for Spurs' clash with City on Sunday afternoon after a "minor" injury issue kept him out of the Champions League clash with Eintracht Frankfurt.
Radu Dragusin
Since returning from a cruciate ligament injury in December, Radu Dragusin has played just six minutes of Premier League football for Spurs.
The Romanian international came on in the dying embers of the win over Crystal Palace in December and the draw with Burnley in January.
Italian side Roma have been linked with a move for the 23-year-old, with the initial plans to sign him on a loan until the end of the season. Dragusin's agent, Florin Manea, told Tele Radio Stereo that he was aiming to push the deal through, but it has not materialised.
Earlier in January, Manea said: "The decisive days will be between today and tomorrow. I'd like to avoid talking, but we hope to reach a conclusion in the negotiations with Roma."
Spurs could opt to use the wantaway star as leverage with City in a deal for Marmoush, given the club's lack of depth in the centre-back position.
Kevin Danso
Looking at City's struggles in their backline, Kevin Danso could be an option for Spurs to negotiate with City for a Marmoush swap deal.
The 27-year-old initially joined on loan last season but made his deal permanent in the summer, signing a five-year contract in north London.
Known for his aggressive style of play and ability to manage a high line of defence, Danso could be the perfect option for City even in the short term.
The defender was set to join Wolves in January 2025, but Spurs hijacked the deal to set them up with cover at the back. The Austria international seems to be happy at the club, but with a title push on the horizon for City, he could be tempted to opt for silverware instead.
