Fulham are ‘tracking’ Southampton’s winger Tyler Dibling, according to the Times’ Paul Joyce, after Everton their opening £27m move turned down.

The Toffees, who have experienced a summer of frustration in the transfer market after failing to sign Kenny Tete on a free transfer, are mulling over whether to submit a second offer worth £35m for the nineteen year-old. The Exeter-born England under-21 international, talked about as a £100m talent in the early weeks of last season, has two years left on his current St. Mary’s contract.

Dibling, who has scored four goals and added three assists in 43 first-team appearances for the Saints since making his senior debut at Gillingham in the League Cup in August 2023. Joyce’s piece says Aston Villa, West Ham United and the Whites are the top flight teams waiting to see whether the Toffees stump up Southampton’s supposed £40m valuation for the 2024 Pinatar Super Cup MVP.
