Tottenham target Morgan Gibbs-White has joined Nottingham Forest on their pre-season training camp in Portugal.

The midfielder not travelled with the squad to southern Portugal on Monday due to what Forest said was a private matter that was not transfer-related.

Gibbs-White's future remains uncertain, with Forest considering legal action over Tottenham's approach for him and Spurs still hopeful of a deal

Forest, who say they never gave Spurs permission to speak to Gibbs-White, are looking at whether a confidentiality agreement in his £60million release clause has been breached.

Gibbs-White played 45 minutes for Forest in their 0-0 draw with Monaco last weekend.

He is said to be keen on a move to Spurs but his team-mate Ola Aina has said the 25-year-old has kept professional.

“He's keeping it professional; I don't know the ins and outs of that," Aina told Sky Sports last weekend.

“He was here today, playing, and he's training, keeping fit as normal.“At the end of the day, we're all professionals - we've got a job to do and that's what Morgan is doing right now. He's keeping it professional."

Gibbs-White joined Forest in 2022 in a deal worth £42.5m.

He has made 118 appearances for Forest, scoring 18 goals and providing 28 assists.

Gibbs-white helped Nuno Espirito Santo's side finish seventh in the Premier League last season.

Spurs are looking to further bolster their attacking options this summer following the £55m arrival of Mohammed Kudus, with Frank a long-term admirer of Gibbs-White.
