Southampton has turned down a £27 million offer from Everton for their promising winger, Tyler Dibling. The 19-year-old England Under-21 international has garnered significant interest from various Premier League clubs after making a notable impact last season, where he scored twice in 33 appearances for the relegated Saints. Dibling also showcased his talent in the FA Cup, netting two goals against Swansea City in January.

Despite the rejection, Everton remains keen on acquiring Dibling and is likely to table an improved bid to secure his services. The Toffees have had a challenging summer transfer window, with manager David Moyes expressing concern about the dwindling time to strengthen the squad. They have made a few signings, including striker Thierno Barry from Villarreal and left-back Adam Aznou from Bayern Munich, but have seen key players like Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Abdoulaye Doucoure depart the club.

With the transfer deadline looming, Everton's pursuit of Dibling reflects their urgency to bolster their attacking options as they prepare for the upcoming season. The situation remains dynamic, and it will be interesting to see how Southampton responds to any further offers for their talented winger.
