Didn't get it? Well, we talk about prodigy Tyler Dibling, who is set to leave the club this summer.

Now, look, certainly, any move isn't finalized for him yet, but all these rumors this while can't be false. As it appears, after just a year of brilliance from the prodigy superstar, the club will be forced to sell him.

Positively, Southampton fans have started accepting they would have to bid farewell to Dibling soon. After all, having faced humiliation humorously, it wouldn't be that tough for them.

Still, none can deny that losing Tyler Dibling would be a massive setback for the Saints.

But optimistically, in this despairing situation, there might be a light at the end of the tunnel for Southampton. That's because, as per Daily Echo, the club is mulling a known name to face Dibling's departure.

Southampton has Dibling's alternative ready in Kuryu Matsuki

Meet Kuryu Matsuki, a shining prospect, currently playing for the Saints' ally club Goztepe.

Since joining the Turkish club on loan in 2024, Matsuki has scored 5 times in just 24 appearances. Further, having as many assists, the talent has been integral to Goztepe's brilliant season.

To top it all, Matsuki's recent form has been exceptionally brilliant. Just yesterday, the 21-year-old scored twice in Goztepe's 5-0 win.

A young attacking option, in red-hot form, Matsuki can prove to be sufficient to fill in Dibling's void at Southampton.

Know what's the best part? Being currently on loan from the Saints, Matsuki will be a no-cost effective solution for Southampton.

Personally, it feels like everything heads towards Matsuki's brilliant return to the Saints. Will he be the next big Southampton thing? Let's hope so.
