Egypt star Omar Marmoush clocks fastest speed in Tottenham’s draw against Manchester United
Egyptian international Omar Marmoush recorded the fastest speed on the pitch during Tottenham Hotspur’s 1-1 draw against Manchester United in the 2026/27 Premier League season, underlining his impressive pace and physical qualities.
The 27-year-old forward came off the bench during Saturday’s encounter at Old Trafford and made his presence felt as Tottenham battled to earn a point against their hosts.
Despite being introduced as a substitute, Marmoush demonstrated his explosive acceleration and ability to cover ground quickly, reaching a top speed of 35.1 km/h to emerge as the fastest player during the match.
Tottenham confirmed the achievement in a post on the club’s official Facebook page, praising the Egyptian forward for his remarkable speed.
“The Egyptian Pharaoh was the fastest against Manchester United,” the club posted.
Marmoush’s top speed highlights one of his key strengths as a forward, with his pace allowing him to stretch opposing defences, make runs into space and pose a threat during attacking transitions.
His ability to make an immediate impact after coming off the bench also offers Tottenham another attacking option as they seek to maintain consistency in the English top flight.
The draw at Old Trafford saw Tottenham leave Manchester with a point, and Marmoush will be hoping to build on his contribution as the campaign progresses.
The Egyptian international will also be eager to turn his physical attributes into further decisive contributions, particularly goals and assists, as he continues his efforts to establish himself at Tottenham.
