Nottingham Forest midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White trained with the team on Tuesday as a potential move to Tottenham remains up in the air.
BBC Sport reported on Thursday that the 25-year-old was set to have a medical on Friday as Spurs looked to trigger his release clause.
Forest are considering legal action against the north London club as it is believed they are looking at whether a specific confidentiality agreement in the £60m release clause in Gibbs-White's contract has been breached.
Under Premier League rules clubs are not allowed to talk to players under contract with another team unless they have permission.
Tottenham are aware of the situation but are still hopeful a deal can be concluded.
Gibbs-White returned to pre-season training on Monday and again trained on Tuesday, despite reports to the contrary on social media.
The England international has two years left on his City Ground contract after joining Forest from Wolves in a move worth up to £42.5m in August 2022.
He has made 118 appearances in three years with the Reds, scoring 18 goals and providing 28 assists.
