The rise of Tyler Dibling: Why Southampton's wanted winger is the 'antidote  to robotic, structured & predictable football' - BBC Sport

Man Utd, Liverpool in race for Southampton gem; star’s thoughts on switch revealed – sources

Southampton sensation Tyler Dibling has emerged as the latest teenage talent lighting up the Premier League – with Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea, and Tottenham are all considering moves this summer.

We understand that the four English clubs are all tracking the 18-year-old winger and have scouted him extensively this season, but luring him away from Southampton, despite their relegation, won’t be straightforward.

Dibling has impressed with his pace, flair, and maturity, making him one of the most sought-after young talents in English football.

While some reports have suggested a £100m valuation, TEAMtalk has been told that any potential move would likely fall closer to the £60m mark – still a sizeable fee for a teenager but one that reflects his sky-high potential.

Dibling, for his part, is ambitious and eager to test himself at the highest level. But unlike other rising stars, the teenager is not expected to agitate for a move.

Tyler Dibling: Who is Southampton's flying teenage winger?

Sources close to the player describe him as grounded, professional, and respectful of the club that’s nurtured his development.

Southampton are in no rush to tell. The club are under no financial pressure and see Dibling as a cornerstone of their long-term project. Having already fended off interest in previous windows, the Saints will only listen to offers that include significant add-ons and future sell-on clauses, ensuring they benefit if – or more likely when – he reaches the very top.

FOUR Prem clubs chasing Tyler Dibling

For Tottenham, Dibling represents a long-term successor in wide areas – a player Ange Postecoglou could mould into a key attacking outlet.

Chelsea, meanwhile, remain committed to their aggressive youth recruitment strategy, and see Dibling as a natural fit for their high-ceiling project.

Liverpool’s development record with young talents could also tempt the player, while Manchester United’s ongoing rebuild could accelerate their push to secure his signature early.

Walker-Peters to be assessed for Everton trip

Simon Rusk shared that Kyle Walker-Peters is his squad’s only doubt ahead of Sunday’s Premier League clash with Everton.

Saints travel to Goodison Park for their penultimate fixture of the season, on a momentous afternoon as the hosts play their final Premier League match at the historic ground.

Heading into Sunday’s occasion after a hard-fought point against Manchester City, Rusk expressed that “the boys are in a good place and have trained well.”

On his travelling squad, only Kyle Walker-Peters – who was absent last week through illness – remains a doubt in terms of his availability.

“Kyle had the illness last week and he hasn’t trained much this week, so there’ll be a decision to be made,” Saints’ interim manager confirmed, “but other than that we’ve generally got a fit squad to choose from.”
