The Tottenham transfer market is keeping Morgan Gibbs-White, a 26-year-old attacking midfielder from Nottingham Forest, among its targets and is considering making a new offer in 2027. Spurs tried to sign him in 2025 and even triggered a £60 million clause, but Forest halted the deal.

Tottenham doesn't forget about Morgan Gibbs-White

Tottenham's interest in Gibbs-White didn't end with that failed operation. TEAMtalk reports that the London team is still monitoring the player and could make a new attempt in 2027, after the previous one didn't result in a transfer.

Gibbs-White renewed with Nottingham Forest in July 2025, signing a contract until June 30, 2028. The new deal came after the dispute over the £60 million clause Tottenham tried to activate.

The economic scenario has also changed. TEAMtalk mentions that Forest has no intention of letting Gibbs-White leave, and any future offer would need to exceed the £116 million paid by Manchester City for Elliot Anderson.

Morgan Gibbs-White maintains his value at Nottingham Forest

Gibbs-White's importance to Nottingham Forest is evident in his performance. In the first four matchdays of the 2026/27 Premier League, the player played 360 minutes, contributing one goal and two assists.

The midfielder scored and assisted in the 2-2 draw against Liverpool and was involved in a goal in the 2-1 victory over Aston Villa on September 12. These performances highlight his impact in Forest's attacking structure.

His market value also places the operation at a high level. Transfermarkt values Gibbs-White at €70 million, and his contract runs until 2028.

Tottenham surpasses £300 million in its rebuild

Tottenham's financial capacity will be another factor to consider. Spurs have made an investment exceeding £300 million during the summer transfer window, as part of a squad overhaul led by Roberto De Zerbi.

Among the acquisitions is Omar Marmoush, who arrived from Manchester City with a loan deal including an obligation to buy for £50 million, plus £10 million in variables. The Egyptian forward joins a list of signings that also includes Sandro Tonali, Mateus Fernandes, Savinho, or Jan Paul van Hecke.

The expenditure this summer demonstrates that Tottenham has already undertaken high-cost operations. A new move for Gibbs-White would need to fit into that planning and surpass any conditions Forest may set for a player under contract until 2028.

Tottenham is aware of the negotiation terms it tried to close in 2025. The club agreed on personal terms with Gibbs-White, but the transfer fell through, leading the player to renew with Nottingham Forest.

Summer 2027 may reopen the operation

The next reference point will be summer 2027, when Tottenham could turn their monitoring into a new proposal. Forest will then have another year on Gibbs-White's contract, potentially boosting their ability to demand a significant fee.

Competition will also be fierce. TEAMtalk lists Arsenal, Manchester United, Manchester City, and Chelsea among the interested clubs, while PSG, Bayern Munich, and Atletico Madrid have also been linked to the player.

For now, Gibbs-White remains at Nottingham, with his contract still running until 2028. Tottenham will have to wait until summer 2027 to decide whether to once again translate their interest into an offer, while Nottingham Forest maintains control over the operation.
