Furious Nottingham Forest ‘want Man City to hijack Tottenham move for Morgan Gibbs-White'
NOTTINGHAM FOREST owner Evangelos Marinakis hopes Manchester City launch a rival bid Morgan Gibbs-White, according to reports. Tottenham are interested in Gibbs-White and were set to sign him earlier this month after triggering his £60million release clause. 3 However, Forest halted the deal after what they claim was an 'illegal approach'. According to talkSPORT, Marinakis wants Man City to step in the way. Gibbs-White told Marinakis he would only leave Forest if a club of a certain level came in for him. The Greek chief does not think Spurs fit that category, and is furious about the idea of his star man signing for them. And he hopes Man City will come in for him instead. Amidst all this, Forest are also interested in Man City young midfielder James McAtee. Tottenham could of course still resurrect the transfer, depending on the outcome of the legal challenge. Gibbs-White did not travel for Forest's pre-season in Portugal due to a "personal matter". His fiancee, who is heavily pregnant, posted photos from a hospital bed on Sunday night and wrote a message to other mums dealing with 'high risk pregnancies'. Gibbs-White joined Forest from Wolves in 2022 for a club record transfer fee of £25million with another potential £17million in add-ons. The attacking midfielder has scored 18 goals in 118 games since, as well as bagging 28 assists. He's also won the Under-21 European Champions with England and made four appearances for England's first team in that time.
