Tottenham set sights on signing Tyler Dibling – report
Southampton teenager Tyler Dibling is reportedly being monitored by Man United, Tottenham, and Newcastle United.
The 18-year-old winger has broken into the Saints first team this season and has caught the attention of several top Premier League sides.
According to HITC, all three teams scouted Dibling during Southampton’s 1-1 draw against Ipswich Town on Saturday (21 September).
Dibling scored his first goal in the English top flight as the Saints initially took the lead in the fifth minute of the game as several scouts watched on.
Scouts have reportedly been working on behalf of Man United since his performance against the 20-time champions earlier this season.
However, several other clubs such as Crystal Palace, Brighton, and West Ham have all also watched Dibling this season.
Southampton will have to work hard to retain Tyler Dibling
Dibling has been part of Southampton since he was a child, joining the club’s academy in 2012, and since then he’s worked his way up the ranks.
The winger made several appearances in cup competitions for the Saints last season but was mainly used in the Premier League 2 division.
However, this season he has broken into the first team with Russell Martin trusting him to start in the Premier League.
Dibling has featured in all five of Southampton’s Premier League fixtures this season, scoring once and providing two assists.
Another player that Southampton will be working hard to keep hold of is Kyle Walker-Peters.
