Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for the Southampton winger Tyler Dibling in recent weeks.
According to TBR Football, they could now sign the player before the January transfer window closes. They could look to sign the player on loan with an obligation to buy.
The England under-21 International has impressed in the Premier League this season and he has already informed Southampton that he does not wish to extend his contract with them. His current deal with the club expires in 2027. It will be interesting to see if the Saints are willing to sanction his departure this month.
The Saints are one of the favourites to go down the season and losing a player in January would be a devastating blow for them. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
Meanwhile, Tottenham are in desperate need of a quality attacker and Dibling could prove to be a quality long-term addition for them. He will add goals, pace and flair from the wide areas. Tottenham need his unpredictability in the final third. He is highly rated across Europe and he has a bright future ahead of himself. He could develop into a key player for Tottenham with the right guidance.
Meanwhile, the 18-year-old will cost around £50 million. Spurs will not be able to afford his asking price right now, but they are willing to include an obligation to buy in the summer. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
Tottenham will face competition from European clubs like RB Leipzig and Premier League rivals Newcastle United as well.
The young attacker will want to join a competitive club capable of pushing for trophies and Tottenham certainly have an ambitious project. It remains to be seen whether they can convince the player and his club over the next few days.
