Arsenal is tied to the movement of Nottingham Forest midfielder Morgan Gibbs White.
The 25-year-old has been very good at Premier League clubs this season, and he has been instrumental in the behind the push in the Champions League qualifying rounds. Arsenal reportedly had watched him and they could see him make a move for him in the summer.
According to football insider journalist Pete O’Rourke, the player was on the Arsenal Radar. There’s no doubt that he’s enough to play for the largest club in the country. He was able to prove that it was a very useful acquisition for the London Club.
Nottingham Forest is already considering alternatives.
Arsenal can use Morgan Gibbs White
Arsenal needs more depth and quality from their team. The 25-year-old adds technical capabilities, drives, flares and goals aside. He can operate in the midfielder, attacking midfielder, and flank.
Arsenal has struggled in offense this season, and they are overly dependent on Bukayosaka. They need more support and Gibbs White might be the ideal acquisition for them.
The midfielder has seven goals and 10 assists in the Premier League this season.

The 25-year-old has been well settled in the Premier League and could have made an immediate impact at Arsenal if he joined the club. They have consistently fought for the league title and managed to reach the UEFA Champions League semi-finals this season. They become an attractive destination for the midfielders and if the opportunity presents itself, he will certainly want to join them.
It will be interesting to see if Arsenal can negotiate a reasonable deal to sign him.
Meanwhile, Manchester City has been keeping track of players’ tabs for a while. They can use someone like him. Especially Kevin de Bruin can leave the club in the summer. It remains to be seen whether they can beat Arsenal to his signature.
