Tottenham Hotspur striker Omar Marmoush has been convicted and fined for failing to insure his McLaren 720S supercar. The player, who is on loan from Manchester City with an obligation for a permanent £60 million deal, was prosecuted by the DVLA.

Court documents show that Marmoush was issued with a fixed penalty fine on June 17. Officials noted that his McLaren 720S, valued at an estimated £250,000, was neither insured nor declared off the road. When the fine was not paid to resolve the matter out of court, the DVLA initiated a full criminal prosecution.

At a hearing at Teesside Magistrates’ Court on October 5, Marmoush was found guilty. He was fined £220 and ordered to pay £100 in costs and an £88 victim surcharge. The striker did not enter a plea to the charge and did not respond to the papers sent to him by the DVLA.

The DVLA had attempted to contact Marmoush at a Manchester city centre apartment where he had been residing before his move to London. His loan to Spurs was announced at the end of August. Marmoush was part of Egypt’s World Cup squad this summer and scored 10 goals for Manchester City after joining them in January 2025.
