Morgan Gibbs-White, the talented midfielder, was set to go through a medical examination with Tottenham on Friday. Excitement was brewing as Tottenham had agreed to a whopping £60 million deal to sign the 25-year-old player. However, the deal has hit a roadblock as Nottingham Forest, the club Gibbs-White currently plays for, has taken legal action against Tottenham.
The sudden turn of events has put a halt to the transfer, leaving both clubs in a state of uncertainty. Tottenham had acted swiftly in securing the deal with Gibbs-White as they had assured Forest that they were willing to meet the midfielder's release clause. The deal was expected to be finalized over the weekend, with Gibbs-White undergoing a medical examination on Friday.
But, Forest's decision to take legal action has thrown a wrench into the works. They have accused Tottenham of making an unauthorized approach for their player, claiming that they did not give permission for the Premier League rivals to negotiate with the England international. This has caused a rift between the two clubs, with Forest cutting off all communication with Tottenham.
Forest is now seeking legal counsel and is preparing to file a complaint with the Premier League. They believe that there has been a breach of confidentiality regarding Gibbs-White's £60 million release clause. The situation has caused tension between the two clubs and has put the future of the transfer in jeopardy. Both Tottenham and Forest will have to wait for the Premier League's decision on the matter before proceeding with the deal.
