If Gibbs-White has looked at Kalvin Phillips, he won't go near City. Too many fish, too small a pool. Not rocket science.
This has also become very boring.
If the clause was met, and if there has been no formal complaint by Forest,it's for us to seek legal advice, but only if the player wants the move.
Either way, it's a distraction and we desperately need other players.
What is for sure, Marinakis, however rich, may have shown he is no pushover, but he has made things a lot more difficult for Forest going forward.
As for Gibbs-White, if he wants out, he submits a transfer request, and then his stance is clear, if not necessarily who he wants/prefers to join.
Just goes to show how little is fact over speculation, as he was the 'Done deal' not so long ago.

Yeah, it’s all very strange.
Hopefully this week is the end of it, one way or another.
60m isn't some insane bargain. Its not like 5 or 6 clubs would have jumped on it if they knew it was there.
I'd say there is a high chance more than just Spurs knew about it. And maybe the RC only became active in July too!
Hasn’t pep ‘reluctantly ‘ agreed to let mcateer go due to lack of minutes
Would seem disingenuous to sign MGW
I think it’s pretty obvious we were the only club he’s interested in who will play the RC
But they are only getting offered below it now it’s public public
By FAR the most likely scenario tho.
Absolutely - no one is going to pay £60m or more for him.
We should give it a week and then move on.
He is not a unique player - if he was others would want him

Will this be the last dregs of what the owe us for Kane
The longest part exchange deal in history
Palinha fits exactly what we need and and 25-30m is a very fair price. That si euro too so probably around 20m Sterling.
My only concern is that he is coming off the back of a poor season and given he is now 30 years old, I hope his best days aren't behind him. The Fulham version from 2 seasons ago would be an unbelievable signing.
It probably didn't I have heard rumours they were telling everyone last year that if they want him they need to bid the minimum release fee.
He’s an insanely limited footballer but can do a job.
Fulham version won’t really exist in the same way for us because we won’t be playing that way as an underdog 90% of the time where we need a pure defensive midfield type who sits.
Especially seeing how much osimhen is sold for both rich money and solanke money would of more then been enough
If mgw goes spend the 60 and then some on a forward
We need a midfielder.
Looks like palhinha but forward is weak with solanke and rich
Any price for a top forward like Sesko would be £80-90m and we’d need one of Richy or Dom gone. I don’t see it this window.
We still need the type of qualities Gibbs-White offers, or we would not be pursuing him..
3 signings are needed in my opinion to make us competitive.
Quality striker, midfielder,if not 2, and a defender who can play across the line.
We can't compete on 4 fronts and expect amything of substance with our current squad. Next to no chance.
