According to an update by reputed Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, Morgan Gibbs-White is the subject of interest from Manchester City. The Citizens are scouring the market for a creative attacker heading into the summer transfer window as they prepare to part ways with Kevin De Bruyne after the 2024/25 season ends.
So, the Nottingham Forest playmaker has emerged as a target for Manchester City heading into the summer transfer window. The Citizens “plan to advance on Morgan Gibbs-White deal in the next weeks”, having identified him as one of the priority targets for this summer. The two parties should have no issues on personal terms, although they might face a tall order to convince Nottingham Forest to part ways with the Englishman.
Morgan Gibbs-White has established himself as one of the best young prospects in the Premier League since joining Nottingham Forest from Wolverhampton Wanderers. The 25-year-old could not establish a foothold at Molineux but has come into his own at the City Ground, helping the Tricky Trees fly high in the Premier League this season.
The English international has contributed to 14 goals in 30 Premier League appearances thus far, finding the back of the net five times and providing nine assists. Meanwhile, Gibbs-White’s progress has piqued the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe. Premier League bigwigs, in particular, are keen on signing him, with Manchester City among the prospective suitors vying for his signature.
Manchester City’s interest in Morgan Gibbs-White is understandable. Kevin De Bruyne will depart from the Etihad after the 2024/25 season ends, with the curtains set to fall on his glittering stint with the Premier League club.
