Dibling has caught the eye this season in the Premier League despite Southampton's dismal form. The Saints are bottom of the table with just nine points but Dibling has impressed with his dribbling ability and direct running. According to The Telegraph, Southampton are expecting plenty of interest in their starlet this summer but will tell interested parties they want £100m for the talented teenager.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Bayern Munich, Tottenham and Manchester City have all been linked with Dibling but it remains to be seen if any club will be willing to match Southampton's valuation. Dibling has scored four goals and contributed two assists this season and is seen by his club seen as one of the most exciting young talents in English football, which is why the Saints are taking such a hard-line stance with regards to a potential summer transfer.
DID YOU KNOW?
Dibling was briefly on Chelsea's books but spent just two months with the Blues in 2022 before returning to Southampton. Now 19, he has completed more successful dribbles than any other teenager in the Premier League this season (40).
