Thomas Frank has had his say behind the scenes as Tottenham Hotspur whittle down their list of midfield targets in an aim to complete their revamp of the role.

Gibbs injected pure electricity into Detroit’s offense with a dynamic three-down skill set that made him a fantasy darling—especially in PPR formats. The Lions leaned on him heavily in the passing game, where his sharp route running, soft hands, and elite open-field burst gave him a reliable weekly floor.

Mohammed Kudus from West Ham United is already done. That’s a £55m transfer. But more eye-opening again is Spurs’ £60m approach for Nottingham Forest’s Morgan Gibbs-White, a midfielder who Manchester City gave consideration to buying. No sooner had David Ornstein broken the exclusive than Gibbs-White was booked in for a medical today.

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs is already one of the most productive ball carriers in the NFL. But now he may take on a bigger role as a receiver.

Simon: If they sell Gibbs-White, having just sold Elanga, you might as well just drop out of Europe and relegate us now.
