Tottenham, West Ham United closely monitoring Morgan Gibbs-White

Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United are keen on signing Nottingham Forest attacker Morgan Gibbs-White this summer.

A report from Give Me Sport has claimed that Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United are keeping tabs on 24-year-old Nottingham Forest attacker Morgan Gibbs-White, and they could look to make a move for him in the summer.

Nottingham Forest are currently fighting for survival in the Premier League, and they could be forced to sell a key player if they go down to the Championship. In addition, their struggles to comply with the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules might force their hand, having already received a points penalty.

The 24-year-old will want to compete at the highest level, and he will not want to play in the championship next season. The opportunity to join Tottenham or West Ham will be an attractive proposition for him. He has been linked with Newcastle United as well.

Nottingham Forest paid £42 million for the Englishman, and they are likely to demand a premium for him if Tottenham and West Ham come calling. Tottenham could certainly use more creativity and goals in their midfield, and Morgan Gibbs-White would be a superb acquisition.

The 24-year-old is capable of operating in a central role as well as in the wide areas. His ability to take on defenders and create goalscoring opportunities with his vision and passing could prove to be very valuable for Tottenham next season.

The North London club are likely to be in the UEFA Champions League next season, and they will need quality attackers at their disposal in order to break down opposition defences. Gibbs-White and Maddison could add a new dimension to their attack. Both players are versatile enough to operate in a number of roles, and Ange Postecoglou will be able to rotate his squad as well.

West Ham want Morgan Gibbs-White as well

Meanwhile, West Ham United need more creativity in the final third, and the 24-year-old could be a key player for them. James Ward-Prowse already plays in a central role at West Ham, and the 24-year-old Nottingham Forest attacker will have to into the wide areas.

West Ham are currently competing in Europe, and the opportunity to play for them could be an attractive proposition for the Nottingham Forest star. It remains to be seen how the situation develops over the next few months.

The Englishman will certainly want to take the next step in his career, and joining a big club like Tottenham will be an attractive proposition for him. If a move to Tottenham does not work out, West Ham could be an attractive destination as well.
