Tottenham’s move to sign the midfielder from England Morgan Gibbs-White is currently underway due to the Nottingham forest, a look ready to take legal action.
According to Sky Sports, it seems that the forest is not satisfied with how the Spurs have addressed this agreement, and it seems to be canceled at the moment.
See below for the full report while Tottenham seems to have been focused on their attempt to sign the talented 25-year-old, who was a star artist in Forest last season…

Sky claims that the forest has the impression that the spurs have made an illegal approach to Gibbs-White and have never been allowed to speak to him.
It will be interesting to see how it develops, but for the moment, it is certainly bad news for Thfc in what would have been a fantastic signature.
Gibbs-White impressed the Premier League last season and looks like someone who can take the next step in their career.
Everything changes to Tottenham this summer with a new manager and new signatures
Last season was a bit of a disaster for Tottenham, even if they ended up beating Manchester United in the Europa League final.
However, this was still not enough to keep Angel Postocoglou in a job, the Northern Londoners ending in 17th place in the Premier League table.
This is only a place above the relegation area, the team losing 22 times and conceding 65 goals in total.
Thomas Frank has now arrived from Brentford to take over as a manager, while Mohammed Kudus was confirmed as the signature of West Ham.
If they can also get Gibbs-White, it would surely do business, but we will have to see how this dispute with the forest is resolved.
Neither of the two clubs comments on the situation at the moment, but it will surely continue to be careful in the days and weeks to come.
