Nottingham Forest are increasingly confident they can keep Morgan Gibbs-White at the City Ground this summer, even with long-running interest from Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur. Forest believe their captain is likely to remain, while other clubs continue monitoring his situation. The report also suggests Forest may be more likely to lose Elliot Anderson than Gibbs-White if a major midfield exit occurs. Gibbs-White is described as central to Forest’s attack, providing ball-carrying, chance creation, intense pressing, and decisive moments. He signed a new deal in 2025 running until 2028, strengthening Forest’s position. He scored in Forest’s 3-2 defeat at Old Trafford against Manchester United, reinforcing his value and Premier League appeal.
"Nottingham Forest are increasingly confident they can keep Morgan Gibbs-White at the City Ground this summer, despite long-running interest from Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur. According to TEAMtalk, Forest believe their captain is likely to stay, even though several bigger clubs continue to monitor his situation. The same report suggests Forest may be more likely to lose Elliot Anderson than Gibbs-White if one major midfield exit happens this summer."
"Gibbs-White remains one of Forest's most important players. He signed a new deal in 2025 that runs until 2028, which gives Forest a stronger hand than they had in previous transfer windows. Morgan Gibbs-White has been in stunning form Gibbs-White's value to Forest is obvious. He is not just a talented attacking midfielder, he is the player who gives their attack personality."
"He can carry the ball, create chances, press with intensity and produce big moments when the team needs them. That is why clubs like Manchester United and Tottenham have kept watching him. The England international scored for Nottingham Forest in their 3-2 defeat against Man United at Old Trafford on Sunday. It was a beautiful finish which would have impressed the Man United recruitment team."
"United's interest makes sense because they have been looking at ways to refresh their midfield and attacking options. Man United have long term interest in the midfielder If Bruno Fernandes' long-term future ever became uncertain, Gibbs-White would be the type of Premier League-proven creator who could immediately add energy and invention. Tottenham's interest is also understandable, especially after they tried strongly for him in the past before Forest tied him down to a new contract."
