Gibbs-White is at the centre of this controversy and has attended Forest's pre-season training, despite the uncertainty surrounding his future. Forest's main concern is how Tottenham became aware of confidential details within Gibbs-White's contract. Forest has now submitted a formal complaint to the Premier League, seeking clarification on this matter.

It remains unclear whether Forest can prevent the transfer or merely delay it. Gibbs-White was reportedly keen on joining Tottenham, and negotiations progressed swiftly last week. Forest's first pre-season match is against Monaco on July 1st, but it is possible that Gibbs-White may have already left the club by then. This would be a significant setback for Forest, who will need a strong squad to compete in domestic competitions and the Conference League.

Forest is eager to keep Gibbs-White, who is an important player for the team. The outcome of this complaint will determine the future of this transfer and the prospects of Gibbs-White's stay at Forest. The situation is complex, and only time will tell how it unfolds.
