Southampton manager Russell Martin has addressed speculation surrounding a potential transfer bid from Manchester United for Tyler Dibling. According to Martin, there are rumours that Manchester United is preparing a £21 million offer for the young talent. However, Martin expressed scepticism about the adequacy of such a bid, humorously suggesting that it might not even be enough to secure Dibling’s left foot.
Contract Negotiations
The 18-year-old midfielder, known for his technical skills and versatility on the pitch, has been offered a new contract by Southampton. Despite the club’s efforts to retain him with what Martin describes as a “very good” offer, Dibling’s agent has yet to agree to the terms. This ongoing negotiation adds another layer of complexity to the situation, as Southampton aims to keep hold of their promising player amidst interest from a Premier League giant.
