Out against Newcastle United
Gibbs-White (face) is ruled out for Sunday's clash against Newcastle United.
Analysis: Gibbs-White has been unable to earn a place in the squad for Sunday's clash against Newcastle United despite appearing on the bench in Thursday's UEL loss, with the facial wounds continuing to prove too significant to play through as the club maintains its cautious approach to his return. Dilane Bakwa starts in his place, with the coaching staff in no rush to reintegrate their midfielder into the matchday squad given the obvious concerns surrounding the nature of his injury. Whether he sees any further action this season remains highly uncertain, with his situation to be assessed on a day-to-day basis as the campaign enters its final stages.
Return this season unlikely
Gibbs-White (face) is unlikely to return this season as his status remains up in the air, according to manager Vitor Pereira, per Sarah Clapson of the Nottingham Post. "I cannot answer because I don't know. I don't know about Morgan."
Analysis: Gibbs-White was included on the bench for Thursday's UEL loss but is still in doubt to return this campaign, as the midfielder's facial wounds appear to be too much to play through. That said, it appears his club doesn't want to rush him back for obvious reasons, leaving his participation in limbo. It does appear that he could be in the squad the next few games via the bench, although the club has made it clear a return this season remains in heavy question
