The player in question is Southampton’s Tyler Dibling, who has not looked back since breaking into the Saints starting eleven. The teenager has been one of the few bright sparks in what has been a poor campaign for Russel Martin’s men so far.

It was reported by GiveMeSport recently that the youngster’s creativity and inventiveness had caught the eye of Tottenham and other clubs in the Premier League.

The outlet claimed that Ange Postecoglou‘s men were plotting a move for the winger in 2025 while the Saints were hoping to tie the player down to a new deal.

However, according to Football Transfers, the Villans are now leading the race to secure Dibling’s signature ahead of the January window.

The Midlands club have now emerged as a ‘serious contenders’ to land the youngster, having impressed the player’s family and built a good rapport with them.

Unai Emery’s men will continue monitoring the Southampton man’s displays over the coming months and despite interest from other clubs, they are said to be confident that they will get an opportunity to hold discussions with Dibling and his representatives.

Tottenham are in need of a right-winger to offer competition to Brennan Johnson, and Dibling fits the age and the tactical profile that Spurs are likely to target.

One would think that Postecoglou’s men would not allow the Saints starlet to go to Villa Park without a fight.
