Gibbs-white FINALLY spoke on potential England recall. The 24-year-old, who departed Molineux in a high-profile £25m transfer to Forest in 2022, has emerged as a linchpin in his team’s extraordinary climb into the Premier League’s top four.

Former Wolves Star Morgan Gibbs-White Keeps Focus on Club Form Amid England Speculation

Ex-Wolves midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White has dismissed speculation about a potential England recall, insisting his focus remains on his stellar performances for Nottingham Forest. The 24-year-old, who left Wolves for Forest in 2022 in a £25m deal, has been instrumental in his side’s remarkable surge into the Premier League’s top four.

Gibbs-White has netted four goals and registered three assists this season, playing a pivotal role in Forest’s success. His latest goal came during a 2-0 victory over Wolves at Molineux on Monday night, a result that propelled Forest to third in the table, level on points with Arsenal. The win has led many to believe that Forest could sustain their stunning form throughout the season.

With new England manager Thomas Tuchel in attendance at Molineux, speculation about a return to the national team for Gibbs-White intensified. The midfielder, who earned two senior caps in 2024, addressed the rumours after the game, responding to Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher’s comparison of him to Jude Bellingham.

“I didn’t even know he (Thomas Tuchel) was here,” said Gibbs-White. “I just want to focus on my club football, focus on my performances for Forest, and doing well. I’ve done well so far, and I just want to maintain that and see what happens when March comes.”

He added, “It does give me a bit of a buzz and put a smile on my face, so I am happy. It is always nice to be talked about with players like Jude (Bellingham). What a player he is. But I just want to focus on club level at the minute and hopefully it comes.”

Gibbs-White’s goal celebration at Molineux—where he put his fingers in his ears in front of the South Bank—was a pointed response to the boos and chants directed at him by Wolves fans. After the game, he posted a photo of the celebration on Instagram, prompting his teammate Neco Williams to mock Wolves fans in the comments, writing: “Quiet stadium after 7 mins.”
