Morgan Gibbs-White, an Arsenal transfer target, has put his disappointment of being overlooked by Thomas Tuchel for the England World Cup squad behind him by attending the Monaco Grand Prix with his glamorous partner, Britney De Villiers.
Gibbs-White's Monaco Escape
The Nottingham Forest midfielder, who has been linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium, enjoyed the glitz and glamour of the prestigious race event over the weekend. While England secured a pre-World Cup friendly victory against New Zealand, Gibbs-White was soaking up the sun in Monaco, watching Kimi Antonelli take the chequered flag.
De Villiers, a social media influencer with over 270,000 followers on Instagram, shared a photo of the couple standing in the famous harbour, where billionaires dock their yachts during race week. The post attracted comments from fans, including Love Island star Danica Taylor, who called it 'Beautiful,' and another follower who wrote, 'Looking fire my angel!'
Meeting Max Verstappen
Gibbs-White also posed for a picture with Formula 1 champion Max Verstappen, who endured a challenging race after failing to get off the line. Despite the disappointment on track, the footballer appeared in high spirits.
Britney De Villiers: More Than a WAG
Britney De Villiers is not only known for her stunning looks but also for her intelligence, holding a law degree. She frequently showcases her lavish lifestyle on social media while raising her two children with Gibbs-White. The couple got engaged during a romantic trip to Lake Como in Italy last year, with De Villiers announcing the news with the caption 'Forever.' However, they have yet to tie the knot.
World Cup Snub Controversy
Gibbs-White's exclusion from Thomas Tuchel's England squad for the upcoming World Cup has been a topic of debate, especially after he scored 15 goals from midfield in the Premier League last season. The 26-year-old expressed his frustration, stating, 'I know myself that I have done more than enough to be in the squad. I got on the wrong side of someone's opinion.'
He added, 'We had a good conversation. I respect him [Tuchel] for calling me and telling me the news. I agreed with what he had to say. I'm glad the season is behind us now, I'm going to concentrate on the summer.'
