Overview

  • Morgan Gibbs-White’s new contract runs through summer 2028 and marks Nottingham Forest’s most lucrative player extension.
  • The deal removes his £60 million release clause, effectively nullifying Tottenham Hotspur’s earlier bid under that clause.
  • Nottingham Forest lodged a formal complaint with the Premier League over Tottenham’s approach, alleging a breach of confidentiality.
  • Since arriving from Wolves in 2022, Gibbs-White has tallied seven goals and eight assists last season and earned multiple senior England caps.
  • Forest view the midfielder as central to their target of sustained Premier League stability and a push for European qualification.
