Southampton have officially rejected a £27 million bid from Everton for their highly-rated 19-year-old winger Tyler Dibling, with the club insisting that an offer closer to £40 million may now secure his signature.
Once tentatively valued at £100 million, Dibling remains under lengthy contract at St Mary’s and has attracted interest from several Premier League clubs—including Aston Villa, West Ham, Fulham, and Manchester United—as well as from abroad.
Everton are reportedly preparing a new proposal, potentially increased to around £35 million, while manager David Moyes faces mounting pressure to reinforce his squad ahead of the new campaign.
Dibling, who featured 33 times in the Premier League last season, is believed to be open to a Merseyside move, recognizing the chance for regular top-flight football in a more stable setting than Southampton, who are now in the Championship.

World Cup: Nicky Butt urges Mainoo to boycott France clash, calls for Tuchel’s sack
Former Manchester United midfielder Nicky Butt has urged Kobbie Mainoo to refuse to play in England’s World Cup third-place match against France. Butt said the midfielder has been unfairly overlooked throughout the tournament and should not be asked to feature in what he described as a meaningless game. He argued that Mainoo has not played a single minute and should not be exposed to injury in a match that offers little value after England’s semi-final exit. Butt also called for the dismissal of England manager Thomas Tuchel, insisting the German coach should not remain in charge after the team’s disappointing World Cup campaign. He suggested that the Football Association should look at other options, naming Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe and United States coach Mauricio Pochettino as possible replacements.

England boss hammered by media after World Cup exit
England manager Thomas Tuchel is facing heavy criticism from the media after his team’s World Cup exit against Argentina. England lost 2-1 in the semi-final, missing a chance to reach their first World Cup final since 1966. Tuchel came under fire for his cautious approach and substitutions, which some analysts said allowed Argentina to take control of the match. The German coach had earlier blamed his players for being too passive, but British newspapers and commentators focused instead on his tactics and game management. The defeat has raised fresh questions about Tuchel’s future and whether he can quickly rebuild confidence in the England team. For many supporters, the loss was another painful setback in a tournament that had offered real hope of ending decades of World Cup disappointment.
