Bruno Lage and co were intent on keeping him but it seems a bid that is too good to be true has broken their resolve. A \u201cdeal worth \u00a344.5 million, including add-ons\u201d is mouth-watering and Nottingham Forest truly mean business.<\/p>\n<p>The Wolves star was at the fore for <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/07\/26\/sheffield-united-loan-brighton-reda-khadra\/\" target=\"_self\">Sheffield United<\/a> on loan last year even in the face of great adversity. From Billy Sharp to Rhian Brewster, several forwards suffered injuries all around him. Gibbs-White and Iliman Ndiaye were the two left to prop up Paul Heckingbottom\u2019s forward line, and they did exactly that.<\/p>\n<p>Since returning to <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/08\/07\/everton-conor-coady-amadou-onana\/\" target=\"_self\">Molineux<\/a>, he has played the full 90 minutes in both matches. It was first a loss against Leeds United at Elland Road and then a goalless draw with Fulham.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201c22-year-old England youth midfielder\u201d had a lot of suitors this summer but a suitable bid for his services seemed out of the question. That was until Steve Cooper\u2019s side came in with this huge offer today.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/08\/13\/nottingham-forest-nigeria-forward-watford\/\" target=\"_self\">Nottingham Forest Agree Fee for Watford and Nigeria Forward<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Nottingham Forest are closing on Morgan Gibbs-White deal, agreement in place &#8211; \u00a335m plus add ons as per <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JPercyTelegraph?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@JPercyTelegraph<\/a>.
