A report from Alex Crook says Bayern Munich lead the race to sign Forest captain Morgan Gibbs-White, who has a goal and two assists this Premier League season.
Nottingham Forest captain Morgan Gibbs-White is attracting transfer interest, with Bayern Munich described as the leading contenders for his signature, according to a report from Alex Crook.
The 26-year-old has one goal and two assists in five Premier League appearances this season. Since joining Forest in 2022, he has registered 37 goals and 37 assists in 176 appearances for the club.
Gibbs-White previously turned down a move to Tottenham Hotspur in order to stay at Forest, though the report suggests he could reassess his future at the end of the season if Bayern pursue him. Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis is expected to resist any approach.
Bayern have a track record of signing from the Premier League, having brought in Harry Kane, Michael Olise and Luis Diaz in recent seasons. Gibbs-White's versatility across the forward line would fit Vincent Kompany's 4-2-3-1 system.
Chelsea were previously linked before turning their attention to Morgan Rogers, while Liverpool are mentioned as a possible suitor given Florian Wirtz's struggles in England.
