HITC understands that Nottingham Forest are not planning to sell Morgan Gibbs-White this summer.
The 24-year-old midfielder is seen as a key component of Nottingham Forest’s ambitions for the coming season.
Morgan Gibbs-White has sparked attention from Premier League clubs such as Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal and Eddie Howe’s Newcastle United.
This summer, Newcastle have already inquired about Gibbs-White and fellow Nottingham Forest player Anthony Elanga.
Aston Villa and Chelsea have also expressed interest in Gibbs-White after his impressive performance last season, but HITC understands that Forest have no plans to move him this summer.
According to HITC, Gibbs-White is satisfied at the City Ground and encouraged by Nuno Espirito Santo’s group.
Nottingham Forest addresses PSR concerns.
After receiving a four-point deduction last season for violating Profit and Sustainability Rules, there was concern that Forest may face financial difficulties again this summer.
However, it is understood that Forest has successfully negotiated PSR and is under no pressure to cash in on Gibbs-White.
HITC knows that it would take a bid much beyond Brennan Johnson’s £48 million fee for them to consider parting ways with Gibbs-White this summer.
According to club insiders, Gibbs-White is unlikely to leave this summer. They are certain that he will be involved in the 2024-25 campaign.
Nottingham Forest Transfer News
Nottingham Forest appear to be keeping Gibbs-White, and Murillo’s commitment to his future at City Ground has given them a boost.
The Brazilian centre-back stated that Forest is the best fit for him at this point in his career, but Murillo hinted at a move to a Champions League club next summer.
Forest have not only retained their key players, but they have also improved their team with the additions of Elliot Anderson and former Celtic star Jota Silva.
HITC stated on Wednesday that Forest were close to completing a double deal that includes Jota Silva.
