"I've spoken with the Head Coach and I really liked what he had to say. I believe our shared passion for the game will make us work very well together."

Sporting Director Johan Lange said: "Omar is an outstanding player and his arrival represents our ambition. He has proven himself capable of performing at the highest level, and we believe he can play a significant role in what we want to achieve in the coming years."

"We are incredibly happy to welcome Omar to the club and look forward to his significant contribution as we continue to build a strong team to achieve our goals."

Head Coach De Zerbi said: "Omar is exactly the kind of player we want at this club – ambitious, hungry for success, and determined to make a difference. He possesses incredible attacking ability, but I admire even more his desire to improve and win."

"He is fast, intelligent, and a significant threat in front of goal. I believe he can elevate our attack to a new level."

Omar, from Cairo, Egypt, made his professional debut for Wadi Degla in July 2016 at just 17 years old, before moving to VfL Wolfsburg in Germany the following year. He initially played for Wolfsburg's youth team in the German Regionalliga Nord, making his first-team debut in May 2020. In the second half of the 2020/21 season, he was loaned to FC St. Pauli.

The following season saw the forward make his breakthrough in European football on loan at VfB Stuttgart at just 22 years old. He had a sensational start to his loan spell, scoring on his debut and winning the Bundesliga Rookie of the Month award in September 2021 – an award he won again in March 2022.

After a brilliant year in Baden-Württemberg, he returned to Wolfsburg and became a first-team regular in his final season with the club, making 48 first-team appearances and scoring 6 goals.

In May 2023, he transferred to Eintracht Frankfurt and had an excellent first season, scoring 17 goals in 41 appearances across all competitions, helping the team qualify for the Europa League. His superb form continued into the following season, earning him the Bundesliga Player of the Month award in September 2024, where he was involved in 7 of the team's 8 goals. In November 2024, he won the Bundesliga Player of the Month award again.

After 67 appearances, 37 goals and 20 assists for Eintracht Frankfurt, the forward joined Manchester City in January 2025 and made a remarkable start to his Premier League career, scoring a hat-trick in Manchester City's 4-0 win over Newcastle United the following month.

In his first season at Manchester City, he made 25 appearances across all competitions, scoring 8 goals, and won the Premier League Goal of the Season award for a stunning strike against Bournemouth in May 2025. In the 2025/26 season, he helped Manchester City win the League Cup and FA Cup, making 62 appearances and scoring 16 goals across all competitions.

In October 2021, Omar scored the winning goal on his debut for the Egyptian national team in a World Cup qualifier against Libya, helping them qualify for the Africa Cup of Nations. He has represented Egypt in three Africa Cup of Nations tournaments and made his World Cup debut in 2022. He has made 55 appearances for Egypt, scoring 11 goals.

Welcome, Omar!
