So, he isn\u2019t short of potential suitors ahead of this summer window.<\/p>\n<p>Gibbs-White is a creative midfielder by trait, but is also efficient in the box-to-box role if needed. He is quick, has an eye for long-range passing, can create opportunities for the attackers, and also works hard without possession.<\/p>\n<p>Tottenham currently have James Maddison and Xavi Simons as options to deploy in the No.10 position. The former Leicester City star returned from a serious knee injury during the final few matches of this season.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Dutchman has suffered a serious knee injury, much like Maddison, and is expected to remain sidelined for several months.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Cole Palmer has been an undisputed starter in the creative midfield position for Chelsea. However, he struggled with fitness problems this season.<\/p>\n<p>Gibbs-White is a <a href=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/tag\/premier-league\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"21\" title=\"Premier League\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Premier League<\/a>-proven player and is currently at the prime stage of his career. So, he would be a shrewd acquisition for Man Utd, Chelsea, or Tottenham should any of those clubs purchase him.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!--mvp-post-tags--><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!--posts-nav-link--><\/p>\n<div class=\"mvp-org-wrap\" itemprop=\"publisher\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Organization\">\n<div class=\"mvp-org-logo\" itemprop=\"logo\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"250\" height=\"50\" src=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/new-logo.png\"\/><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/new-logo.png\"\/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><!--mvp-org-logo--><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"Football Talk | Premier League News\"\/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><!--mvp-org-wrap-->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/233578\/man-utd-battling-with-tottenham-chelsea-for-gibbs-white\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manchester United are reportedly battling with Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea over a deal to sign Nottingham Forest star Morgan Gibbs-White, as per the Daily Mail.
