Marmoush has suffered a knee ligament bruise in Tuesday's clash against Burkina Faso and will undergo scans on Wednesday morning upon his arrival in Cairo, Egypt's team doctor Mohamed Abou El-Ela said to the media, according to Ismael Mahmoud from WinWinAllSports.

Marmoush was forced off in the 10th minute of Tuesday's clash against Burkina Faso following a heavy challenge that caused a knee ligament bruise. The injury is expected to be minor according to reports, but he will undergo scans on Wednesday morning in Cairo to determine the extent of the issue. That said, if the forward has to miss the derby on Sunday, Phil Foden and Jeremy Doku could be possible replacements in the frontline against the Red Devils.
