Eintracht Frankfurt striker Omar Marmoush has confirmed he rejected a summer move to Nottingham Forest.

The Egyptian, who has scored eight goals and provided four assists, has played a large part SGE's progress. He also scored twice against Munich (3:3).

He recalled, "The defenders were always very high up. But I was faster than them, so it was easier for me to play against them. I knew that at some point I would get a chance and so it happened several times."

Marmoush is all the happier that he stayed loyal to Eintracht in the summer and turned down the offer from Nottingham Forest: "A transfer was possible, but thank God I stayed and I'm happy that I stayed. This was the right decision."
