Morgan Gibbs-White signed a new contract with Nottingham Forest earlier this summer, temporarily reducing transfer speculation. Despite the extension, multiple Premier League clubs have maintained interest, leaving his long-term future uncertain. Tottenham made concrete approaches and explored a release clause, but Gibbs-White opted for stability at Forest citing family reasons. A reassessment of his options is expected in January. Aston Villa, West Ham and Newcastle are also monitoring the situation; Villa value his positional versatility, West Ham’s interest may hinge on Lucas Paqueta’s future, and Newcastle view him as a source of energy and creativity. Forest would consider offers around £65–70m.
That extension initially quieted speculation around his next move, but interest from several Premier League sides has been quietly building in the background, suggesting his long-term future at the City Ground remains uncertain. Tottenham are among the clubs most strongly linked with a move for Gibbs-White.
