Overview

  • Morgan Gibbs-White has signed a new three-year deal with Nottingham Forest, keeping him at the club until summer 2028 and ending Tottenham’s £60 million interest.
  • The contract is understood to exclude a release clause, making it the highest-value deal in Forest’s history and cementing Gibbs-White’s long-term role.
  • Nottingham Forest filed a formal Premier League complaint over Spurs’ alleged illegal approach earlier this month, triggering an official investigation.
  • Owner Evangelos Marinakis flew to the club’s Algarve training camp for face-to-face talks that were pivotal in securing the midfielder’s commitment.
  • The extension underscores Forest’s ambition as they prepare for their first European campaign in 30 years after finishing seventh in the Premier League last season.
