City has also signed 19 -year -old defender Vittor Reis from Palmeira and defender Abndukondir Husanov from Lance in the January transfer period.
Marmos heads to the Premier League after just 18 months with Frankfurt, having been transferred from Wolfsburg by free transfer.
The talented forward, who can operate in the top three, stayed outside the Frankfurt team that won Borussia Dortmund on Friday night, with the German club confirming that he was in discussions about his departure.
Football manager TXIKI BEGIRISTAIN said: “Omar is a complete and exciting striker and I am happy to have come with us.
“He had a great season and every time we watched him, he has influenced the races.
“He has all the characteristics that a top striker requires. He is excellent and aware and is excellent in front of the goal. It can also play many different positions, which is really a valuable advantage.
“Also, I have no doubt that cooperation with the PEP and the technical staff here in City will see him further develop his wonderful aggressive talent.”
