Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly stepped up their efforts to sign Southampton man Tyler Dibling at the end of the season.
Recent reports have suggested that Spurs have earmarked the 18-year-old as a potential arrival in North London during the summer transfer window.
Dibling has impressed massively during his first-ever Premier League campaign, bouncing back from a difficult period within the academy of Chelsea.
The tricky right winger has featured in 20 top-flight contests for the struggling Saints in 2024-25, scoring goals against Ipswich Town and Crystal Palace.
Dibling is also on the verge of making a major breakthrough on the international scene, knocking on Lee Carsley's door for caps in the England Under-21s setup.

Tottenham 'plotting move' to sign Southampton star Dibling
According to Football Insider, a Premier League giant have stepped up their efforts to secure the services of Southampton's Dibling over the summer.
The report claims that Tottenham are actively plotting a move for the 18-year-old, who has caught the eye of major clubs so far this season.
It is understood that Dibling will become available to potential suitors should Southampton suffer an immediate relegation back down to the Championship.
Such a fate appears highly likely for Ivan Juric's troops, who are 10 points adrift of safety at the very foot of the Premier League standings.
As well as Ange Postecoglou's men, Manchester United and Newcastle United are said to be in the race for Southampton man Dibling at the end of the term.

Tottenham's transfer policy
Languishing down in 14th in the Premier League table, Tottenham are on course for short-term pain as they plan for long-term success in North London.
Much of Spurs' summer recruitment revolved around the additions of stars of the future, with Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall joining the club.
At just 18 years of age, Dibling is of a similar profile to the aforementioned duo, possessing the potential to be a star at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for many years to come.
