Nottingham Forest head coach Oliver Glasner has responded to comments from former manager Steve Cooper regarding Morgan Gibbs-White's future. Cooper suggested Forest could face a battle to keep the 26-year-old playmaker, who has been linked with Bayern Munich and previously drew interest from Tottenham Hotspur. Glasner affirmed that while the club is keen to retain Gibbs-White, the ultimate decision on his career will rest entirely with the player himself.

Gibbs-White has almost two years remaining on his contract, which runs through 2028.

Glasner also noted that Gibbs-White still has room for improvement across all aspects of his game as he aims to secure future international call-ups.
