Nottingham Forest's midfielders face pivotal summer transfer decisions

Nottingham Forest's midfielders Morgan Gibbs-White and Elliot Anderson are at the centre of the club's summer 2026 transfer plans. Anderson is expected to move to Manchester City for a fee exceeding £100 million, a deal that could reset market values for central midfielders across the Premier League.

Tottenham’s recent £52 million purchase of defender Jan Paul van Hecke signals the high prices clubs are willing to pay, indirectly strengthening Forest’s negotiating position to retain Gibbs-White. Owner Evangelos Marinakis has already extended Gibbs‑White’s contract, aiming to keep the player and secure a sizeable fee should a sale occur.
