Morgan Gibbs-White set to undergo Tottenham medical

Morgan Gibbs-White is expected to undergo his Tottenham medical on Friday ahead of completing his transfer from Nottingham Forest, according to BBC Sport.

Spurs have already triggered his £60m release clause. Gibbs-White is set to become the second summer signing following the arrival of Mohammed Kudus from West Ham on Thursday.

Manchester City were heavily linked with a move for the 25-year-old prior to the start of the Club World Cup, however, Pep Guardiola’s side cooled their interest.

Gibbs-White, who has four England caps netted four times and provided eight assists in 34 Premier League games last season for Forest who missed out on Champions League qualification.

He is set to become the second Forest player to exit the club alongside Anthony Elanga, with Forest agreeing the latter’s £55m sale to Newcastle earlier this week.

Gibbs-White moved to Forest from Wolves for a then club-record fee of £25m plus add-ons in August 2022, on a five-year deal.

He racked up over 110 appearances in three years at Forest, scoring 18 goals and registering 28 assists in all competitions.

Gibbs-White made his England debut as a substitute in the Nations League win over the Republic of Ireland in September under interim manager Lee Carsley.

His most recent appearance came off the bench in the 3-1 friendly defeat by Senegal at the City Ground under new boss Thomas Tuchel.
