Morgan Gibbs-White seeks England call-up after strong start for Nottingham Forest

Morgan Gibbs-White continues to anchor the Nottingham Forest attack following the departure of Elliot Anderson to Manchester City. The 26-year-old captain recently assisted Dan Ndoye’s opener and scored a penalty in a 2-2 draw at Liverpool. Manager Oliver Glasner has moved James McAtee into a deeper midfield role to provide Gibbs-White with more freedom in advanced positions. The midfielder is currently tied with Erling Haaland for the most goal involvements among Premier League players during the 2026 calendar year. Despite his domestic production, Gibbs-White remains outside the England squad after failing to receive a call-up for the World Cup earlier this year. He aims to maintain his form ahead of upcoming Nations League matches against Spain, Croatia, and the Czech Republic.
