Is Morgan Gibbs White leaving Nottingham Forest in 2025?

Morgan Gibbs-White and Tottenham Hotspur have found themselves in hot waters after Nottingham Forest accused them of illegally approaching the player. Forest are also now preparing to complain to the Premier League. In this article, we explore if Morgan Gibbs White is leaving Nottingham Forest.

Is Morgan Gibbs White leaving Nottingham Forest?

The short answer to Morgan Gibbs-White leaving Nottingham Forest is both, yes and no. Morgan Gibbs-White’s £60m move to Tottenham maybe in jeopardy. Forest are considering all legal options against the London based outfit for illegally approaching their player. Gibbs-White was supposed to have his medical done on Friday, 12th July, which has now been put on hold.

Not to forget, Morgan Gibbs-White had a release clause in his contract, which Spurs have activated. However, Nottingham Forest are now considering that. They believe there’s been a breach of confidentiality in his contract.

According to Nottingham Forest, Tottenham Hotspur have not been cleared to contact the player to agree personal terms. Spurs have already signed Kudus from West Ham and Morgan Gibbs-White will be an addition to the successful transfer window they’ve had.

Morgan Gibbs-White’s “secret” release clause wasn’t supposed to be known by other clubs without enquiry, and Forest are right in calling it a foul. Nottingham Forest are in talks with their lawyers to consider all possible actions against Spurs. Gibbs-White had joined Forest for £25m in 2022 following their promotion to the PL and has been pivotal for the team. He has delivered both goals and assists whenever the team needed it. Manchester City were also tracking him before Spurs looked clear favorites to get his signature.

Nottingham Forest have already lost Anthony Elanga and losing Gibbs-White will be the final nail for them. However, they will now have enough funds to make any breakthrough signings and compete again for the top 8 of the Premier League. Let’s see how the deal goes and if Gibbs-White finally lands at Spurs or not.
