Galatasaray Sets Deadline for Icardi Deal, Targets Omar Marmoush as Backup

Galatasaray has issued a final offer to Argentine striker Mauro Icardi of a guaranteed €4 million annual salary and has warned that a decision must be made by the end of the month, or the club will proceed with a new forward. The management indicated that if Icardi does not accept, they will activate a pre‑prepared B‑plan.

In parallel, the club has identified Manchester City forward Omar Marmoush as its primary alternative. Marmoush, a 27‑year‑old Egyptian international currently playing at the World Cup, is being pursued on a loan‑with‑purchase‑option basis after his contract with City runs until 2029. Galatasaray aims to secure his services before the new season begins.
