According to Florian Plettenberg, Tyler Dibling could be set for a move back to the Premier League following a raft of enquiries from top-flight sides. Manchester United, West Ham United, and Tottenham are showing an interest in the Southampton wonderkid, who is valued at €55-65 million.
Tyler Dibling is viewed by many clubs as the sort of player suitable for the long-term future. Despite the attacker showing plenty of promise and poise in the Premier League last season with relegated club Southampton, he still has a long way to go in his development.
Dibling was not particularly pushing to leave Southampton, but he could accept the idea of returning to the top flight and playing for a bigger team. The Saints are not opposed to a sale, and from an earlier stance where they demanded upwards of €100 million for the 19-year-old, they might reportedly accept a fee between €55-65 million.
Southampton are already fielding enquiries from Manchester United, Tottenham and West Ham United. The latter are bracing for Mohammed Kudus to join Spurs, and Tyler Dibling could be viewed as a viable replacement for the Ghanaian international, given the similarities between the two signings in terms of versatility.
Tottenham are certainly keen to bring Kudus as a senior signing, but they are also keen to take their young project forward with the addition of someone like Dibling. Daniel Levy was unwilling to overpay for the attacker earlier, and while the new price point might be something Spurs can think about, they will be in the mix for the €55-65 million-rated wonderkid.
Manchester United are also interested in Dibling as a potential option to improve their squad. There will be a raft of attacking departures expected at Old Trafford this summer, which could open the door for someone like the €55-65 million-rated wonderkid to arrive as a squad option. The Red Devils are angling for a move for Bryan Mbeumo in addition to the arrival of Matheus Cunha, meaning the front three starters are likely set.
Hence, Tyler Dibling could be seen as a presence for the future, although his current quality will allow Ruben Amorim to have different options in his squad. From a transfer perspective, Manchester United will prioritise their key targets first, then think about signing someone for their project, such as Dibling.
