Eintracht Frankfurt has confirmed that Egyptian winger Omar Marmoush will miss their upcoming Bundesliga match against Wolfsburg due to a knee injury. Marmoush sustained the injury during Egypt’s 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier against Cape Verde, a match in which he scored for the Pharaohs.
In a statement released on their official website, Eintracht Frankfurt disclosed: “Omar Marmoush will not participate in the match against Wolfsburg due to a partial laceration of the collateral ligament in his knee.
A wait-and-see approach will be adopted regarding his recovery.”
This announcement follows an earlier statement from a Frankfurt spokesperson who had initially downplayed the severity of Marmoush’s injury, indicating that further diagnostic imaging was required to fully assess the damage.
The news is a significant blow for both Marmoush and Eintracht Frankfurt.
The winger had been in outstanding form at the start of the season, contributing one goal and three assists in the first three league matches.
His absence will undoubtedly be felt as Frankfurt prepares for their third Bundesliga fixture.
Eintracht Frankfurt will face Wolfsburg on Saturday, with both teams having secured three points from their opening two league games.
Marmoush’s injury comes at a crucial time as Frankfurt looks to build on their early season performances and secure a strong position in the Bundesliga standings.
The injury management strategy for Marmoush will be closely monitored, with the club hopeful for his swift recovery.
In the meantime, Frankfurt will need to find alternative solutions to fill the void left by Marmoush’s absence as they continue their campaign in Germany’s top tier.
