Everton will soon submit an improved proposal to sign 19-year-old English winger Tyler Dibling from Southampton in the summer transfer window.
According to a report by Football Insider, Tyler Dibling is the subject of interest from Everton. The Toffees are eager to bolster their offensive unit by signing a wide attacker in the summer transfer window. So, the 19-year-old Southampton winger has emerged as a target for the Merseyside outfit.
The Toffees view the Englishman as an ideal alternative to his compatriot and Manchester City outcast Jack Grealish, who has been on their wishlist this summer. Meanwhile, Everton will submit an improved bid to sign Dibling from Southampton after failing with an opening offer to secure his services.
Tyler Dibling and his progress
Tyler Dibling has established himself as one of the best young prospects in his homeland in the last 12 months. While Southampton could not remain in the Premier League after a disastrous 2024/25 campaign, the teenage prospect was a rare bright spot. The English attacking sensation spent his formative years with nearly half a dozen clubs and graduated from the youth division at Southampton FC.
The 19-year-old was not highly prolific in the 2024/25 season. However, the player’s potential has piqued the attention of several well-known clubs, particularly from the Premier League. The 19-year-old is a target for many high-profile Premier League clubs and European bigwigs. However, Everton may be the young winger’s next destination in the summer transfer window.
Premier League return on the horizon?
Everton’s interest in Tyler Dibling makes sense. The Toffees have been combing the market for a wide attacker throughout the summer transfer window after choosing not to complete permanent moves for Jack Harrison and Jesper Lindstrom when their loan deals expired. While Harrison remains on Everton’s radar, they want to keep their options open.
While several candidates, including Jack Grealish, have emerged on Everton’s radar, they view Dibling as an ideal alternative to his compatriot. A summer move for the 19-year-old Englishman will not be straightforward, with the Merseyside outfit failing with the opening bid to secure his services. However, they are ready to return with an improved proposal.
Recent reports have suggested that Southampton will demand around £55 million to part ways with Dibling, with the valuation spooking prospective suitors. It will be interesting to see if Everton’s improved bid does the trick and takes the English attacking sensation to the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
