Newly promoted Nottingham Forest have joined Leeds United and Southampton in the race to sign Wolves midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White. The Sun’s Alan Nixon on Patreon, claims Jesse Marsch side will have to fend off interest from their Premier League rivals if they want to secure his signature.
Nixon claims Forest are considering making a £20million bid for the midfielder who shone on loan at Sheffield United last season. Ralph Hassenhuttl is also very keen on the midfielder and is thought to have no issues meeting Wolves' £20million asking price.
The Whites have been keeping a close eye on the England youth-international but Wolves could offer the 22-year-old a new contract at Molineux this summer. Gibbs-White made 40 appearances in all competitions last year, scoring an impressive 13 goals and notching 11 assists.

Forest boss Steve Cooper worked alongside the midfielder during their time at Swansea City. Wolves must now decide whether to cash in on the midfielder or give him a regular run of games in the Premier League.
The midfielder's contract runs until the summer of 2024, so while there is no immediate rush to sell the midfielder, Bruno Lage could use his sale to reinvest into the squad.
