Everton Close to Signing Southampton's Tyler Dibling for £40m
Everton is nearing a £40 million deal for Southampton midfielder Tyler Dibling.
The England Under-21 international has been the target of three previous offers from Everton this summer, all of which were declined.
However, sources have informed BBC Sport that negotiations between the two clubs have resumed.
At just 19 years old, Dibling has garnered interest from several Premier League teams after scoring twice in 33 appearances last season.
On Friday, Everton manager David Moyes expressed that the club is currently facing significant challenges in making new signings.
Everton has already invested £75 million on six players this transfer window and has also secured the loan signing of Manchester City winger Jack Grealish.
"We have money to spend and we are trying to spend it," Moyes stated. "It's not that we don't have the funds; we do, but we're finding it very difficult to make the right acquisitions at the moment."
Dibling made a late appearance as a substitute for Southampton in their recent 1-1 draw against Ipswich last weekend.
