Nottingham Forest confirm £42.5m signing of Wolves midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White
Nottingham Forest have confirmed the capture of Wolves midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White on a five year deal - in a deal that could rise to £42.5 million.
The 22-year-old has been a long time target of Forest boss Steve Cooper - with the newly promoted side having several bids knocked back this summer.
However - early this week Wolves accepted a fee with the former England youth international becoming the latest player to arrive at the City Ground following a busy transfer window.
Wolves will receive a guaranteed £25million, with £7million-£10million of likely add-ons, which could take the deal to £35million.
On top of that, there are several ambitious add-ons that could take the full fee to £42.5million.
The newly-promoted club previously had three offers rejected for the forward, the latest was £25million with £10million in add-ons which was swiftly rejected.
The midfielder will now reunite with Cooper, after being his U17 World Cup winning side in October 2017 - and played for the Forest boss on loan at Swansea City.
He spent last season on loan at Sheffield United - and scored in the play-off semi finals against Forest.
