Nottingham Forest v AS Monaco - Pre-Season Friendly
Morgan Gibbs-White has extended his contract with Nottingham Forest until 2028. The 25-year-old, who has become a central figure in the team’s resurgence, was tied to the club until 2027, but Forest were always eager to extend that commitment further., despite Tottenham triggering his £60 million ($81m) release clause.
WHAT HAPPENED?
Earlier this month, speculation intensified as reports surfaced suggesting Gibbs-White was poised to complete a medical at Tottenham Hotspur. That move, however, hit multiple roadblocks and the player has signed a one-year extension with the club, which will now keep him for three more years with the Tricky Trees.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Gibbs-White recently rejoined his teammates at Forest’s pre-season training camp in Portugal after being granted additional time at home due to a private family issue. Upon linking up with the squad, he featured in a goalless friendly against French side AS Monaco on July 19, which signalled that an extension could be on the cards.
WHAT FOREST SAID
Forest put out an update on X, which read: "A statement of intent from our owner Evangelos Marinakis, as Morgan Gibbs-White signs a record deal at the Club until the summer of 2028. 🤝"

DID YOU KNOW?
Since his switch from Wolverhampton Wanderers in the summer of 2022, Gibbs-White has steadily grown into one of Forest’s most valuable assets. His creativity and leadership were on full display during the 2024–25 season, in which he tallied seven goals and 10 assists to help propel the club to a remarkable seventh-place finish in the Premier League. With 118 appearances in a Forest shirt, he has notched 18 goals and delivered 28 assists, numbers that reflect his consistent impact in the final third.
