Aston Villa will face Freiburg in the Europa League final
The 26-year-old was an unused substitute in Thursday's 4-0 Europa League semi-final second leg defeat at Aston Villa.
Forest lost 4-1 on aggregate as Villa progressed to the final in Istanbul on 20 May to play Freiburg.
Gibbs-White was named on the bench after suffering a serious cut on his head during Monday's win at Chelsea but Pereira admitted he was not fit.
"I cannot answer because I don't know about Morgan," said Pereira, when asked if he will play again this season.
"I don't know about Ola (Aina). Callum (Hudson-Odoi) has finished the season, I don't know about Murillo. In the end I need Friday.
"If you look at our bench (against Villa), we brought three players in condition to play (Lorenzo) Lucca, (Dilane) Bakwa and (Ryan) Yates and three players injured without conditions to go to help the team.
"Three boys from the academy and Murillo with a risk to play, who's not yet ready to play. I have the day to understand the situation."
Forest host Newcastle on Sunday still looking to seal Premier League survival with Pereira aware of the mental recovery needed.
"It's difficult, but it's difficult on Thursday. Friday is another day," he said.
