Tottenham Hotspur are advancing quickly in pursuit of Nottingham Forest midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White.
On Thursday afternoon, it was reported that Tottenham had set their sights on Gibbs-White – and things have been accelerating ever since.
Meanwhile, TBR Football revealed that Gibbs-White has told Forest he wants to explore the opportunities that have come his way.
TBR Football also confirmed that Gibbs-White has a release clause of over £60million, making him a fairly attainable target.
Now, Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Tottenham have triggered Gibbs-White’s release clause.
In addition, Mike McGrath of The Telegraph has reported when Gibbs-White is expected to undergo his medical at Tottenham.
Morgan Gibbs-White’s Tottenham medical pencilled in for Friday
McGrath took to X on Thursday evening to report that Tottenham were going to trigger Gibbs-White’s release clause.
His medical is scheduled for Friday, added McGrath.
Just 11 minutes later, Romano declared “here we go” on Gibbs-White to Tottenham, with the Lilywhites having triggered his release clause.
The Italian said Tottenham were making “massive moves”, with Kudus also set for Spurs, and corroborated McGrath’s report of Gibbs-White having a medical in the next 24 hours.
The other clubs who were interested in Morgan Gibbs-White
TBR Football have been told that Manchester City are the other club who are actively interested in Gibbs-White.
We can also reveal that Liverpool, Newcastle and Chelsea all had some contact over the England star earlier this summer.
However, Tottenham appear to have won the race for Gibbs-White and, barring any dramatic late twists, it looks as though he’ll be N17-bound.
