Southampton set £100m asking price for Tyler Dibling | OneFootball

Southampton will demand an extraordinary fee of more than £100m for teenage winger Tyler Dibling.

Dibling is a transfer target for leading clubs in England and Europe with Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City leading the queue.

The 19-year-old has shone during a breakthrough season with the Saints, where he has scored four goals and provided two assists in 30 appearances across all competitions. Southampton believe Dibling is one of the most talented young players in English football and will demand a huge fee from suitors.

The Telegraph claim that the Saints value Dibling in excess of £100m, a figure that has ‘frustrated’ interested clubs. In addition to City and Spurs, Manchester United and German duo RB Leipzig and Bayern Munich have all scouted the England youth international this season.

Spurs saw enquiries to sign Dibling turned down in the January transfer window and Southampton are prepared to adopt a ‘hardline’ stance on the player – despite the looming reality of relegation from the Premier League.

The Saints are bottom of the table and 17 points adrift of safety with nine games to go. Though relegation will be a financial blow, Southampton will not be pushed into accepting a cut-price deal for Dibling.

An asking price of £100m would make Dibling the third-most expensive teenager of all time, behind Kylian Mbappe and Joao Felix.
