Morgan Gibbs-White makes gesture to Nottingham Forest fans as £60m Tottenham drama continues

Video footage of Morgan Gibbs-White applauding the Nottingham Forest fans has emerged online amid the ongoing Tottenham transfer saga.

The Morgan Gibbs-White, Tottenham Hotspur and Nottingham Forest transfer saga is far from over, with several twists springing up in the last seven days.

Just last week, it looked like Tottenham were set to get their hands on their second marquee signing of the summer window, when it was reported that Spurs had triggered Gibbs-White’s £60 million release clause and that a medical was set for the following day.

Forest, however, were far from pleased with Tottenham’s approach, and the move has since been delayed, with Nottingham Forest having filed a complaint against Spurs.

Morgan Gibbs-White gesture fuels Tottenham and Forest transfer tension

Reports have claimed that Tottenham are confident Gibbs-White will end up as a Spurs player before the window shuts.

Others have reported that Nottingham Forest remain adamant that Gibbs-White will stay at the City Ground.

However, with each passing day, Spurs fans have only been left frustrated as the saga drags on.

Forest named Gibbs-White in their starting XI to face Monaco in their pre-season clash at the City Ground on Saturday.

The Forest starting eleven sparked reactions from both the Tottenham and Forest fanbases, with many fans of the Midlands club giving it large to Spurs supporters.

Video footage has now emerged of Morgan Gibbs-White engaging with the Nottingham Forest fans at half-time, who gave him a warm reception after he played 45 minutes against Monaco.

Some fans have even claimed that the Englishman made a heart symbol towards the home crowd.

Spurs fans left puzzled by Gibbs-White stance

Of course, for Forest supporters, they would be delighted if their club could keep hold of one of their talisman, as Gibbs-White managed 17 goal contributions in the Premier League last season.

These very Forest fans were fuming when reports emerged that Gibbs-White was heading to Tottenham, with many calling the 25-year-old a snake.

However, given how professional Gibbs-White has been, Forest fans are now loving him once more. For Tottenham fans, though, they would be scratching their heads and wondering why the former Wolves man is not forcing a move to N17, after reports claim that Gibbs-White is open to joining Tottenham this summer.
