Nottingham Forest midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White is being monitored, according to Manchester City HITC.
The midfielder recently won his first cap for England against the Republic of Ireland and became the first Forest player to represent the Three Lions this century.
His good performances have been noticed by some of the biggest clubs in England and the Premier League champions are one of them.
They admire the former Wolves midfielder, who has performed at a high level since joining Forest in 2022.
According to the report, Forest are ready to open talks with the midfielder over a new contract.
Since becoming an England international, Gibbs-White’s stock has taken a huge leap and Forest are aware that interest in his services could increase from Premier League clubs.
Man City admire the midfielder and have been building a detailed report on the player.
Newcastle United and Tottenham have also been linked with an interest in the midfielder.
Man City’s interest in the 24-year-old could intensify with Kevin De Bruyne entering the final stages of his career at the club.
The legendary Belgian midfielder has been linked with a move away from the Sky Blues in the latest summer transfer window.
Man City prepare for life without Kevin De Bruyne
The uncertainty surrounding his future could be why the Premier League champions were keeping an eye on Gibbs-White.
However, Forest are willing to offer the player a significant pay rise to keep him at the club.
It remains to be seen what the future holds for the midfielder, but the lure of playing for Man City and Pep Guardiola will be too great to turn down.
Gibbs-White will relish the chance to play alongside the likes of Erling Haaland, Phil Foden, Jack Grealish and other world-class City players.
His career could change if he joins City in the future, moving from relegation battles to challenging for the league title every season.
