Marmoush’s stunning effort came just 14 minutes into Manchester City’s final home game of the season. Picking up the ball inside Bournemouth’s half, he surged forward before unleashing a vicious, dipping shot that soared past the goalkeeper, ricocheting off the post and into the top corner. The strike was a moment of sheer brilliance, showcasing his technical ability and confidence.
Since joining Manchester City from Eintracht Frankfurt in January, Marmoush has made an immediate impact. The Egyptian forward netted seven goals in 16 Premier League appearances, including a memorable hat-trick against Newcastle United in February. His performances have quickly won over fans, and his Goal of the Season victory further solidifies his growing reputation.
Marmoush’s strike edged out fierce competition from some of the league’s finest finishers. The shortlist included efforts from Chelsea’s Cole Palmer and Nicolas Jackson, Aston Villa’s Jhon Duran, Fulham’s Harry Wilson, Newcastle’s Alexander Isak, Bournemouth’s David Brooks, Brighton’s Kaoru Mitoma and Carlos Baleba, and Ipswich’s Jens Cajuste. However, Marmoush’s goal stood out as the most spectacular, earning the highest number of votes from both the public and a panel of football experts.
With this award, Marmoush becomes the first Manchester City player to win the Premier League Goal of the Season and the second Egyptian to claim the honor, following Mohamed Salah’s solo strike against City in the 2021/22 season. His achievement marks a significant milestone in his career and adds to his growing list of accolades.
